MARINA – Flowers Lyrics

Flowers Lyrics by MARINA

Now we reached the end
I ran the marathon
The road had many bends
But we knew that all along
I think it made me stronger
But I would rather not
Betray myself,
just to keep your love
at any cost
And it’s most tempting
to give in
When you hear the firin’ shots
When you’re steps
from winning back
All the happiness you
lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
With every careless action
you let me slip away
If you just bought me flowers,
maybe I would’ve stayed
You didn’t think I was serious,
I guess you felt so safe
If you just bought me flowers,
maybe I would’ve stayed
Maybe I would’ve stayed
Maybe I would’ve stayed
The seeds we planted grew
But not like roses do
We had the thorns and leaves
But the buds, they never bloomed
And now my future gleams
With colors bold and bright
In a home that’s filled with
love and hope
And a life that just feels right
And it’s most tempting
to give in
When you’re almost at the top
When you’re steps
from winning back
All the happiness you
lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
With every careless action
you let me slip away
If you just bought me flowers,
maybe I would’ve stayed
You didn’t think I was serious,
I guess you felt so safe
If you just bought me flowers,
maybe I would’ve stayed
Maybe I would’ve stayed
Maybe I would’ve stayed
I wouldn’t have walked away
I wouldn’t have walked away
And there’s no heartbreak
left to feel
It happened years ago
After you made your choices
I melted away like snow
‘Cause you like lying
to yourself
And now I’ll never know
What parts of your love were
for real
And what parts were for show
With every careless action
you let me slip away
If you just bought me flowers,
maybe I would’ve stayed
You didn’t think I was serious,
I guess you felt so safe
If you just bought me flowers,
maybe I would’ve stayed
Maybe I would’ve stayed
Maybe I would’ve stayed
I wouldn’t have walked away
I wouldn’t have walked away
