She Gets the Flowers
[Verse 1]
Tell me what she has that I don't?
Why you were so fast to let go of us?
'Cause she's all you wanted
When it was my heart you didn't want it
Why wasn't I cast in your show?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I gave you everything
All my friends are saying it's you, it's not me
Wish I could believe them
[Chorus]
But she gets the flowers, right?
The posts made about her
A love that is perfect, a love I deserved, yeah
A love that I gave
I got excuses and you got to use this
Lеave me in the dust, with nothing and just, walk away
But shе gets the flowers, right?
She gets the flowers
[Verse 2]
Tell me why I wasn't enough
After all that I gave up for you
Was it too much to ask
For just a part of what I gave you back, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Why was I so hard to love? (So hard to love)
[Pre-Chorus]
And you found your person
Oh, there's nothing worse than knowing she's happy
The way I wanted to be
[Chorus]
And she gets the flowers, right?
The posts made about her
A love that is perfect, a love I deserved, yeah
A love that I gave
I got excuses, you got to use this
Leave me in the dust, with nothing and just, walk away
And she gets the flowers, right?
Yes, she gets the flowers
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh
Do her eyes look better when they shine?
Do her lips taste sweeter than mine?
Does she look prettier when she cries? (Cries)
Was I just too hard to handle?
Too emotionally unstable?
You don't want me
And I can't change your mind
[Chorus]
She gets the flowers, right?
The posts made about her
A love that is perfect, a love I deserved, yeah
A love that I gave
I got excuses, you got to use this
Leave me in the dust, with nothing and just, walk away
And she gets the flowers, right?
