If I gave you a flower for every song I wrote for you
I'd grow a garden out in the meadows right in our own backyard
If I gave you a flower for every lie you told
I'd make a city growing roses filled with thorns
I'll plant every color, crimson, honey, and pink
Though you can never see it because your love was colorblind
Patching up the grass to grow seeds in our own backyard
But you never dealt with the problems underground
So now you dig out, make amends, correct the path with a little pretend
Pour some water, plants, and flowers on that very land
If I blew dandelions for every aisle of views
I think it'd look like snow with all the flying fairies around
If I picked the petals from the daisies you gave
I'd keep reciting your love smear not till my fingers bleed
I'll plant different colors, white, blue, and tangerine
Though you can never see it because your love was colorblind
Patching up the grass to grow seeds in our own backyard
But you never dealt with the problems underground
So now you dig out, make amends, correct the path with a little pretend
Pour some water, plants, and flowers on that very land
So now you're sorry in front of a haze
Change the mind that corrupted your ways
Fallen panelists of what you did to me
You said we're perennial plants
Because flowers truly wither
But your words last forever
I'll plant a little pretend
Pour some water, plants, and flowers on that very land
