The Flowers
Amerie

Now it's just a memory and it's hard to think

Hard to think about it

'Bout the love I left behind, I can't help but think

What could I have done about it?


But deep inside I know

It's your fault that I'm not there

Once you put aside your pride

I know that you saw it so clearly


That you're nearly losing your mind, tryna rewind

Do what you did and didn't do, so I'm telling you

You should have did so much more to show you loved me


I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them)

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours

(When I was around)


Now there's nothing you can do

But to wish I was with you

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late

Press rewind to go back in time


So there's nothing you can do

'Cause I'm no longer missing you

You should have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them)

'Cause now I'm gone


And baby, it's so hard to believe you

When you say that you promise you'll be better

'Cause everything you're saying right now

You were saying forever


You should have showed you loved me

You should have spent more time

You should have been the answers

To the questions in my mind


But you're here, ain't going no where

You'll never let me go

(You'll never let me go)


'Cause baby, I couldn't feel your love was real

You took for granted what we had, so I'm telling you

You should have did so much more to show you loved me


I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them)

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours

(When I was around)


Now there's nothing you can do

But to wish I was with you

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late

Press rewind to go back in time


So there's nothing you can do

'Cause I'm no longer missing you

You should have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them)

'Cause now I'm gone


And it hurts so much inside for me to let you go

(Let you go, yeah)

But it hurts me so much more to stay with you

And I know that you can explain how much you changed

But it remains the same

It's just to late for us, it's just to late for us


There's no way to get back

All the love that we had

But I still can't help but wish that


I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them)

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours

(When I was around)


Now there's nothing you can do

(And there's nothing you can do about it)

But to wish I was with you

(But to think about it)

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late

Press rewind to go back in time


So there's nothing you can do

'Cause I'm no longer missing you

You should have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them, hey, hey, hey, hey)


I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them)

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours

(When I was around)


Now there's nothing you can do

(Nothing you can do)

But to wish I was with you

(But to wish I was with you)

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late

Press rewind to go back in time


So there's nothing you can do

'Cause I'm no longer missing you

You should have gave me the flowers

(When I could smell them)

'Cause now I'm gone
