It seems like only yesterday I sat and watched my sugar playChasing butterflies in the summer sunShe ran barefoot all day long and never thought a thing was wrongBut all the doctors said it was sure to comeShe was my sugarRunning through the flowersMy sweet little sugarSugar in the flowersHer favorite place was in the flowersWhere she used to play for hoursAfter her little legs stopped runningShe brushed away the bumblebeesAnd I'd hide the tears so she wouldn't seeAnd guess about what was comingShe was my sugarSweet sugarSugar in the flowersThe autumn slowly rolled aroundAnd all the flowers fell to the groundAnd all that was green turned to golden redThen sugar couldn't even sitAnd knowing she was goneShe'd never walk from itBroke my heart to lay her in her bedPoor little sugarHer little friends blot flowersAnd placed them at her bedsideSugar in the flowersThen sugar's life like flower petals drooped and fadedAnd then it left herAnd all of sugar's pain was at an endSo peaceful and so still she layShe seemed just like a dream awayAs I placed flowers in her little folded handsSweet sugar in the jasmineepingLater they는데Now spring has rolled around againAnd flowers bloom across the landSpring showers sprinkled down onto the groundAnd I know that it was ruled by GodThat it would be my sugar's jobTo water all the flowers in the gardens all aroundShe was sweet sugarSugar in the flowersSugar in the flowers
