The Flowers Lyrics - In Love & War - Amerie

Now it's just a memory and it's hard to think 

Hard to think about it 

'Bout the love I left behind, I can't help but think 

What could I have done about it? 

But deep inside I know 

It's your fault that I'm not there 

Once you put aside your pride 

I know that you saw it so clearly 

That you're nearly losing your mind, tryna rewind 

Do what you did and didn't do, so I'm telling you 

You should have did so much more to show you loved me 

I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them) 

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours 

(When I was around)

Now there's nothing you can do 

But to wish I was with you 

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late 

Press rewind to go back in time 

So there's nothing you can do 

'Cause I'm no longer missing you 

You should have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them) 

'Cause now I'm gone 

And baby, it's so hard to believe you 

When you say that you promise you'll be better 

'Cause everything you're saying right now 

You were saying forever 

You should have showed you loved me 

You should have spent more time 

You should have been the answers 

To the questions in my mind 

Photos 

But you're here, ain't going no where 

You'll never let me go 

(You'll never let me go) 

'Cause baby, I couldn't feel your love was real 

You took for granted what we had, so I'm telling you 

You should have did so much more to show you loved me 

I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them) 

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours 

(When I was around) 

Now there's nothing you can do 

But to wish I was with you 

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late 

Press rewind to go back in time 

So there's nothing you can do 

'Cause I'm no longer missing you 

You should have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them) 

'Cause now I'm gone 

And it hurts so much inside for me to let you go 

(Let you go, yeah) 

But it hurts me so much more to stay with you 

And I know that you can explain how much you changed 

But it remains the same 

It's just to late for us, it's just to late for us 

There's no way to get back 

All the love that we had 

But I still can't help but wish that 

I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them) 

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours 

(When I was around) 

Now there's nothing you can do 

(And there's nothing you can do about it) 

But to wish I was with you 

(But to think about it) 

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late 

Press rewind to go back in time 

So there's nothing you can do 

'Cause I'm no longer missing you 

You should have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them, hey, hey, hey, hey) 

I'm wishing, I wish you would have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them) 

And I'm wishing, I wish you would have held me for hours 

(When I was around) 

Now there's nothing you can do 

(Nothing you can do) 

But to wish I was with you 

(But to wish I was with you) 

But it's too little, too late, too late, too late 

Press rewind to go back in time 

So there's nothing you can do 

'Cause I'm no longer missing you 

You should have gave me the flowers 

(When I could smell them)
