Keep the Flowers

Lyrics

[Verse 1] If you need a reason why I'm walkin' away Well, I've got a dozen and you brought bouquets Every time you messed up, got mad and got mean They don't work like they used to on me [Chorus] Daisies won't make me give a damn And tulips won't dry up these tears And roses are tried and they're true, but I'm through Forgivin' you for all of the times You put me through hell, kept me cryin' for hours I'll keep my last name and you can keep the flowers [Verse 2] Every new promise is a new one you'll brеak Soon after comes "sorry" and a note on a vasе They show up and they bloom for five or six days It's funny how you do the same [Chorus] But daisies won't make me give a damn And tulips won't dry up the tears Now roses are tried and they're true, but I'm through Forgivin' you for all of the times You put me through hell, kept me cryin' for hours I'll keep my last name and you can keep the flowers [Bridge] Keep the flowers, keep me in the back of your mind Hope the next girl don't mind a damn garden inside [Chorus] But daisies won't make me give a damn And tulips won't dry up these tears Now roses are tried and they're true, but I'm through Forgivin' you for all of the times You put me through hell, kept me cryin' for hours I'll keep my last name and you can keep the flowers [Outro] Honey, just keep the flowers Keep the flowers
