play it and i cant find the lyrics or an MP3 online and i want both

i only had the power - look what it took for me to finally bring you
flowers"  .. i always thought the name of this song was Flowers but i
really cannot find it anywhere and i dont know why.

I can direct you to the lyrics of the song, to an audio clip (which is
not the complete song), and to a place where you can buy the CD that
contains the song. If this would be fully satisfactory, please let me
know.
