She knows the secrets no one knows  and shes' sweeter than the rose    gardenia says we're gonna drown  like ophelia we'll float on down    she says we're nearer to the end  and very soon there will be nothing left    (oh no,oh no)    she says theres' really no escape,  yeah she says we've sealed our fate    gardenia sees the world in flames  her intuition says its much to late    i can't believe when she says  that pretty soon everything will be dead    there'll be no roses left to pick  there'll be no people left to give them  there'll be no air for us to breathe  there'll be no need for hell or heaven    gardenia says we're gonna drown  like ophelia we'll float on down    she says we're nearer to the end  and very soon there wil be nothing left    gardenia sees the world in flames  her intuition says its much to late    i can't believe when she says  that pretty soon everything will be dead    there'll be no need to be forgiven
