I Should Have Sent Roses

Are you standing outside? Looking up at the sky Cursing a wandering star Well if I were you I'd throw rocks at the moon And I'd say, "Damn you wherever you are" I don't know where to start This cage round my heart Locked up what I meant to say What I felt all along the way Just wondering how come I couldn't take your breath away 'Cause I never sent roses I never did enough I didn't know how to love you Though I loved you so much And I should have sent roses When you crossed my mind For no other reason Than the fact you were mine I should have sent roses Looking back on my life If fate should decide I could do it all over again I'd build no more walls I'd stay true and recall The fragrance of you on the wind You'll get better than me Someone who can see Right from the start give it all that you need And I'll slip away Knowing I'm half the man I should be 'Cause I never sent roses I never did enough I didn't know how to love you Though I loved you so much And I should have sent roses When you crossed my mind For no other reason Than the fact you were mine I should have sent roses Should have sent roses --- I Should Have Sent Roses - Elton John and Leon Russell
