Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I heard of flowers blooming far beyond the sea
Colors vivid as the dreams you once shared with me
I swore to fetch them, cross the waters wild and gray
To see that sparkle in your eyes light up the day
[Verse 2]
The journey long, through storms and shadows I did chase
The rarest blooms to bring a smile to your sweet face
But time was fleeting, much too fast for my slow pace
And distance grew in more than just the empty space
[Chorus 1]
But you couldn’t wait for my return
The last bouquet on its way, yet to learn
That while I battled tide and time
Your heart had moved on, leaving mine
[Verse 3]
Now I hold the flowers, scent of bitter truth
A fragrant symbol of my love, lost in its youth
These petals witness to the cost of my delay
A price too steep for any heart to truly pay
[Chorus 1]
But you couldn’t wait for my return
The last bouquet on its way, yet to learn
That while I battled tide and time
Your heart had moved on, leaving mine
[Chorus 1]
But you couldn’t wait for my return
The last bouquet on its way, yet to learn
That while I battled tide and time
Your heart had moved on, leaving mine
[Chorus 1]
But you couldn’t wait for my return
The last bouquet on its way, yet to learn
That while I battled tide and time
Your heart had moved on, leaving mine
[Bridge]
So here I stand, with nothing but my regret
Flowers in hand, your silhouette
Hard to let go, harder yet to forget
These blooms, a token of love, now met with silence
[Chorus 1]
But you couldn’t wait for my return
The last bouquet on its way, yet to learn
That while I battled tide and time
Your heart had moved on, leaving mine
[Chorus 2]
But you couldn’t wait, couldn’t see
The last bouquet, a part of me
While I sought to cross the sea
You found your peace, without me
[Outro]
So I’ll place these flowers where our dreams lie spent
A monument to love’s labor, never sent
They’ll bloom in silence, as silent as my heart
With every petal that falls, we drift further apart
