Flowers

(album: School Of Roses 2 - 2021)

Packing you clothes, going back on the road
In the middle of COVID
After the show, jet lagged coming home
Tryna live for the moment
I been missing you for a long time
Still be looking for you all night
And sometimes I wake up on the wrong side
I want what I shouldn't

I'm in over my head
Know what you said
But, you're the one looking
From the life that we planned
To the line in the sand
Its like everything's crooked
And my silence can't lie
And you won't see my crying
Cause still waters run dry
Oh

Sometimes you take my love, you take my heart, you take my joy
Then you lift me up, then you fill my void
Not afraid to be wrong even when you know that I'm right
But when I got back home, she said

Don't bring me flowers
I want your time
Minutes and hours
Are harder to find
So don't bring me flowers
Play with my mind
Make me believe
Make me believe
Believe, you're mine

So you grabbing your bags and you're on your way back
You just landed from somewhere
Always texting alone so I'm checking your phone
Cause you're looking for something
That we ain't had in a long time
Feels cold enough to make the wind chimes
No more tears I'm making the song cry with no interruptions

She took my heart, took my love, took my joy
She let me fall this time, can you fill my void
Not afraid to be wrong even when I know that you're right
I thought everything was fine but when I got home, she said

Don't bring me flowers
I want your time
Minutes and hours
Are harder to find
So don't bring me flowers
Play with my mind
Let's make believe
Make me believe

Don't bring me flowers oh
Don't bring me flowers, I'll bring you mine
Don't bring me flowers, oh
Let's make believe, make me believe
Believe, your lies
