Sellers of Flowers (卖花的人) - Regina Spektor (蕾吉娜·史派克特)
Written by：Regina Spektor
The sellers of flowers buy up old roses

They pull off dead petals like old heads of lettuce

And sell 'em as new ones for cheaper and fairer

But they die by the morning so who is the winner

Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers maybe winter

'Cause winters coming soon after summer
It runs faster faster chasing off autumn
We go from a warm sun to only a white sun
We go from a large sun to only a small one

When I was a small girl I walked through the market
Holding my dad's hand mitten gloved hand
That night there were roses lit up in glass boxes
The heat lamps would keep them from freezing in winter

We never bought them but somebody must have
Maybe they made it or maybe they froze up
Before any person had put them in water
And hoped that they'd still be alive by the morning

Who's the winner
Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers
Not the tellers of the stories
Not the fathers not their children
Not those walking on a dark night
Through a memory they're forgetting

Who's the winner who's the winner

Maybe winter maybe winter

Somebody steps on a light through a tunnel

They're holding a piece of their mind in the rubble

Hold on I won't let go I want to know

But no one lives long enough to see the outcome

To know any answers to know what the point is

To know if the winter ever came closer

Than on that night when I walked with my father

A small piece of ice lodged in my mind
Lodged in my thoughts lodged in my eyes
Cold all around cold all around
Warm from inside warm from inside

Who's the winner
Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers
Not the tellers of the stories
Not the fathers not their children
Who's the winner
Not the roses not the buyers not the sellers
Not the tellers of the stories
Not the fathers not their children
Not those walking on a dark night
Through a memory they're forgetting
Who's the winner who's the winner

Maybe winter maybe winter
Who's the winner who's the winner

Maybe winter maybe winter
Who's the winner who's the winner
