Hey boy, has it really been so long?
Just wanted to talk and ask how you're doing
Not what went wrong, or who you're screwing
Just to kick it for a second kinda like we used to
Don't know about you but I think it's kinda strange
How we would stay inside and just hang for days
And everything else would just fade away
How we'd our change our names and move to Spain
Yeah, if we only had the guts
Instead we just laughed and smoked and stuff
And after all we did, and all we said
Now we have to act like we're almost friends
And like you're not a part of me
So pardon me if I kept watering the flowers that you left behind
When you left and you left me only
A pocketful of posies

(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)
Pocketful of posies
(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)
Pocketful of posies
(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)
Pocketful of posies
(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)

And whoever said there's one true love
Then I guess that I'll always love you
But people just up and leave
And love grows cold like a cup of tea
But it still takes good on ice
So don't think twice, it's all right like the singer once said
The one you used to play while we laid in bed
And now I just stand and I'm playing pretend
But who's gonna drive you home
Who's gonna write you poems
Who's gonna crack the jokes
Who's gonna make you laugh
With these silly-ass rhymes that you thought were dumb
And I was having fun just for a minute
Making love because we were in it
Making up another ending
I said it, I meant it
I guess it's only
A pocketful of posies

(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)
Pocketful of posies
(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)
Pocketful of posies
(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)
Pocketful of posies
(Pocket full of posies, fall down next to)
