Lyrics

Are you standing outside? Looking up at the sky Cursing a wondering star Well If I were you I'd throw rocks at the moon I'd say damn you wherever you are I don't know where to start This cage 'round my heart Locked up what I'd meant to say Or I felt all along the way Just wondering how come I couldn't take your breath away Cause I never sent roses I never did enough I didn't know how to love you Though I loved you so much When I should've sent roses When you crossed my mind No other reason Than the fact you were mine I should've sent roses Looking back on my life Oh, if fate should decide I could do it all over again I'd build no more walls I'd stay true and recall The fragrance of you on the wind You'll get better than me Someone who can see Right from the start Given all that you need I'll slip away Knowing I'm half the man I could be Cause I never sent roses I never did enough I didn't know how to love you Though I loved you so much And I should have sent roses When you crossed my mind For no other reason Than the fact you were mine I should've sent roses Yeah should've sent roses
