♪ Lyrics ♪
[Intro]
I guess it can't be helped
It's just a matter of when
Do you think she'd notice
If I never bloomed again?
As my roots grow tangled
Letters rotting on read
I just close my eyes
As I get stuck within my head

[Verse 1]
Late nights alone
The sapling prays to grow
To sow
To see you through the phone
Through paths unknown
My heart elopes by prose
Hello
Awarded best in show
My inking slows
We're running in circles again
A worn out plea for anything
To prove this poem complete
I've come to see
That if it's between you and me
Words won't get through to anyone
Lost in the flowerbuds

[Pre-Chorus]
It's only three small words
That I'm desperate to hear
But i can't be certain
If you're always nowhere near
If the sun grew cold
Proving all that I fear
If I had your blessing
Then it all would disappear

[Chorus]
But I feel so stupid
Cus you feel the same
And when I water the roses
I can't trust you to stay
And so here I lay
Neath the shimmering moon
Just a lovestruck fool
What do I do but wait for you?

[Verse 2]
Late nights inert
Rehearsing every word
Unheard
A sonnet-silent blur
And sure it hurts
These fingertips for covered in dirt
Still digging for a love returned
A single sordid verse

[Pre-Chorus]
It's only three small words
That could make me run away
Moving soil like mountains
For a chance of brighter days
But the eight small letters
Never show me their grace
Kiss a rose or [push] daisies
Under skies forever gray

[Chorus]
And I feel so stupid
Cus you feel the same
And when I water the roses
I can't trust you to stay
So here I lay
Neath the shimmering moon
Just a lovestruck fool
What do I do but wait for you?

[Bridge]
People come and surely they go
Flowers wilt and surely they grow
Oh, my heart, don't spare me the truth
When I bloom, it won't be for you
Oh, people come and quickly they go
Oh, through my heart, will I ever grow?

«I guess it can't be helped»
«It's just a matter of when»
If she just won't notice
Then I'll take it on the chin
If our roots grow separate
If the roses stay dead
I can plant new seeds
And pen tomorrow's flowerbed

[Chorus]
And I feel so stupid
Cus you feel the same
And when I water the roses
I can't trust you to stay
So here I lay
Neath the shimmering moon
Just a lovestruck fool
What do I do but wait for you?

[Outro]
People come and quickly they go
Flowers wilt and surely they grow
Oh, my heart, so sure of the truth
When I bloom, it won't be for you
Oh, people come and quickly they go
Oh, soon comes the spring
These flowers will grow
