Are you standing outside?
|
Looking up at the sky
|
Cursing a wondering star
|
Well If I were you
|
I'd throw rocks at the moon
|
I'd say damn you wherever you are
|
I don't know where to start
|
This cage 'round my heart
|
Locked up what I'd meant to say
|
Or 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
|
When I should've sent roses
|
When you crossed my mind
|
No other reason
|
Than the fact you were mine
|
I should've sent roses
|
|
Looking back on my life
|
Oh, 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
|
Given all that you need
|
I'll slip away
|
Knowing I'm half the man I could 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've sent roses
|
Yeah should've sent roses
|

I Should Have Sent Roses
