i brought you these flowers
a bouquet i made ya
i stole from the front yards
of all of my neighbours
this took me hours
i picked all your favourites
you let them dehydrate
in a matter of days
gave much more than
just my time to you
wish i knew back then that
all you’d do was waste it
coulda saved myself the heartbreak
and wasted energy
cos it wouldn’t ever be reciprocated
i brought you these flowers
a bouquet i made ya
i stole from the front yards
of all of my neighbours
this took me hours
i picked all your favourites
you let them dehydrate
in a matter of days
i been racking my brains
like what's she gon’ think
and do she like daises
does she like pink
will she be cutting off the stems
give ‘em something to drink
will she keep 'em
in a vase or kitchen sink
and it might seem kinda crazy
but I’m starting to think
I’m over contemplating
complicating this
and I’m on the brink of asking
if she’ll be my wife
i brought you these flowers
a bouquet i made ya
i stole from the front yards
of all of my neighbours
this took me hours
i picked all your favourites
you let them dehydrate
in a matter of days
