Favorite Flowers

Oh

It took two years for you to get taken from me
I prayed and prayed it wouldn't of been three
Losing you was the hardest thing I've ever have to do
Still can't believe I made it through

The day before you left I said goodbye
You laid there helpless, hoping it was the last time
And I just tried to not cry
You know, I didn't want you to know I'd lie

No, no

The night that you were taken
I drove across the neighborhood breaking
I cried and cried for hours
Though the pain just never went away
Oh, everything went gray
The day we laid your favorite flowers

Now, it's been a year and it still isn't easy
Sometimes, I think you're still here
And my mom is trying to restore you
And everything would be okay
But, then, I remember it's been a year

The night that you were taken
I drove across the neighborhood breaking
I cried and cried for hours
Though the pain just never went away
Oh, everything went gray
The day we laid your favorite flowers

Oh, and I look at your favorite flowers
The roses that we laid with all our power
I look at your favorite flowers and I know
That you're right there with me
Knowing soon it'll go
(No)

I look at your favorite flowers
And I think back to when you were here
I look back to when time was ours
And then I realize
That maybe it was time for you to go

The night that you were taken
I still remember it so vividly
I thought life was mistaken
For taking you so soon
But, when I look at your favorite flowers, oh I know
That it was time for you to go
