You used to bring flowers
You used to bring flowersToo many to mention
You no longer turn your headWhen I come into the houseAfter a day of hard work
I remember it wellThose endless nightsAnd you who don’t come waitingWhen love is overTell me
Tell me what you feel nowAnd what you mean
Your love is going too fast for meI’ll see your back againYou used to bring me flowers
Oh it was so simpleSimple thenTalking about later
But that later that now seems “never”Words so discardedAnd scattered in letters
Dearest oh I rememberWhat I learned from you
I learned from your tearAnd I learned from your smile
And I of your loveWhich I did not always see
If you think I’ve learned nothingThen goodbyeYou used to bring flowers for me
If you think I haven’t learned anythingGoodbye
Say once you miss me
Once you err
You used to bring flowers for me
