Flowers

I should've took you dancin' A little candle light romancin', with roses But I was high upon a bar stool I was such a blind fool, now I know it You won't believe how much I've changed since you left It took loosin' you, for me to find myself Oh, I wish that you could see me Steady hands without the whiskey, you'd be so proud Got that job down at the factory A brand new suit for Sunday, I'm in church now It's been one year since I sat behind a bar I went by the junk-yard, they've still got our car I still see you on your knees Beggin' me not to drive But I took away the keys And made you climb inside An' I'd take your place in this field of stone If I only had the power Look what it took For me to finally bring you flowers Oh, I'd take your place in this field of stone If I only had the power Look what it took For me to finally bring you flowers Just look what it took For me to finally bring you flowers --- Flowers - Billy Yates
