[Verse 1]
I wasn't quite a rose
I was a little more daisy
Waving in the wind
Letting it take me where it wanted to take me
I shined in the sun, I danced in the rain
You said that's what you loved about me
And I should never change
But that changed

[Chorus]
You just had to go and tear me down
You just had to have it your way now
Selfish boy, it could've been so good
You just had to go and break my heart
Crush my dreams and kill my spark
Wish something else caught your eye
When you reached down to get me
Of all the flowers
You just had to pick me

[Verse 2]
Sometimes true colors take a while to show through
When yours did I knew that it wouldn't end well
You couldn't help yourself
[Chorus]
You just had to go and tear me down
You just had to have it your way now
Selfish boy, it could've been so good
You just had to go and break my heart
Crush my dreams and kill my spark
Wish something else caught your eye
When you reached down to get me
Of all the flowers
You just had to pick me

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, why'd you pick me?

[Chorus]
You just had to go and break my heart
Crush my dreams and kill my spark
Wish something else caught your eye
When you reached down to get me
Of all the flowers
You just had to pick me

[Outro]
Selfish boy, it could've been so good
I wasn't quite a rose
I was a little more daisy
Waving in the wind
Letting it take me
Where it wanted to take me
