Flowers Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We were good, we were gold
Had a dream that can't be sold
We were right 'til we weren't
Built a home and watched it burn

[Pre-Chorus]
Mm, I didn't wanna leave you
I didn't wanna lie
Started to cry, but then remembered I

[Chorus]
You can buy yourself flowers
Write your name in the sand
Talk to yourself for hours
Say things I don't understand
You can take yourself dancing
And you can hold your own hand
'Cause I can love me better than you can

[Post-Chorus]
Can love me bettеr
I can love me bettеr, baby
Can love me better
I can love me
[Verse 2]
Paint your nails cherry red
Match the roses that I left
No remorse, no regret
I'll forget every word you said

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, I didn't wanna leave you
I didn't wanna fight
Started to cry, but then remembered I

[Chorus]
You can buy yourself flowers
Write your name in the sand
Talk to yourself for hours
Say things I don't understand
You can take yourself dancing
And you can hold your own hand
'Cause I can love me better than you can

[Post-Chorus]
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better, I...
[Bridge]
I didn't wanna leave you
I didn't wanna fight
Started to cry but then remembered I

[Chorus]
You can buy yourself flowers, oh-oh
Write your name in the sand
Talk to yourself for hours, yeah
Say things I don't understand
You can take yourself dancing
And you can hold your own hand
'Cause I can love me better than
'Cause I can love me better than you can

[Outro]
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
