Flowers in my Hands

You call me out, when I come around
The moon is rising with the headlights in the corner now
Another night in your arms, so many more to come
We're young and beautiful and the envy of everyone

And though these eyes are wide I try not to worry none
I keep a strong face to protect us from the little one
I want to make it okay, think of you every day
With these flowers in my hands I lay alone by your

Some years later now, somehow it all worked out
We've got the big house and the kids are getting older now
And everyone's hanging out, dressed up and swirling around
In the backyard with the floodlights and the crickets sound
But this all has its cost
And all the time we lost
Prepared to be alone with living ghost that haunts this house
I feel it when I sleep
You breathing next to me
The silence in the room blends with the hurricane spinning in my head

And though these eyes are wide I try not to worry none
I keep a strong face to protect us from the little one
I want to make it okay, think of you every day
With these flowers in my hands I lay alone by your

And though these eyes are wide I try not to worry none
I keep a strong face to protect us from the little one
I want to make it okay, think of you every day
With these flowers in my hands I lay alone by your grave
With these eyes open wide no more worry in my life for the years passing by
Or the tears that we cried I want to make it okay think of you every day
With these flowers in my hands I lay along by your
