[Verse] Emily born in Chicago town With dreams so high never looking down Moved to San Diego so wide and bright Life unfolding day and night [Verse] Father's gone in sixteen's grip Left school early a sudden trip Met her love in eighteen's grace Life together a warm embrace [Chorus] Flowers bloom on Fern Street lane In the greenhouse with love's sweet name Ponds and ferns a hidden rhyme In her heart a timeless time [Verse] Lyle and Emily side by side Hand in hand love's gentle ride Betty born in nineteen's light Made their family shine so bright [Bridge] Through the years the garden grew With each flower a story true Emily's touch in every leaf In every petal joy and grief [Chorus] Flowers bloom on Fern Street lane In the greenhouse with love's sweet name Ponds and ferns a hidden rhyme In her heart a timeless time
