Tigerlily
I picked a Tigerlily
Put in a jar
Filled it water
Gave it life a little more
Before it wilted to the bottom
I killed it before I started
You weren't quite my lover
And you weren't quite my friend
But if one things for sure
I know I'd do it again
I love you
I'm sorry
Is it too soon
To be honest?
Cause what's the point of loving if I can't love a heart like yours?
And what's the point of trusting if we're always behind closed doors?
Swear I'd give you anything you wanted
Swear I'd give you anything you asked
So I picked a Tigerlily put it in a jar
You weren't my lover
But I sure wish you were
Oh I sure wish you were
Wish you were
You gave me butterflies
I felt them from afar
Before we ever even touched
You left your mark
I should've never let you in
You turn my walls paper thin
And all of these petals
Like breadcrumbs that you dropped
They led me right to my place in your arms
So hold me extra tight
And never leave my side
Cause what's the point of loving if I can't love a heart like yours?
And what's the point of trusting if we're always behind closed doors?
Swear I'd give you anything you wanted
Swear I'd give you anything you asked
So I picked a Tigerlily put it in a jar
You weren't my lover
But I sure wish you were
Oh I sure wish you were
Wish you were
I picked a Tigerlily put it in a jar
Filled it with water gave it life a little more
Before it wilted
To the bottom
I killed it
Before I started
Put in a jar
Filled it water
Gave it life a little more
Before it wilted to the bottom
I killed it before I started
You weren't quite my lover
And you weren't quite my friend
But if one things for sure
I know I'd do it again
I love you
I'm sorry
Is it too soon
To be honest?
Cause what's the point of loving if I can't love a heart like yours?
And what's the point of trusting if we're always behind closed doors?
Swear I'd give you anything you wanted
Swear I'd give you anything you asked
So I picked a Tigerlily put it in a jar
You weren't my lover
But I sure wish you were
Oh I sure wish you were
Wish you were
You gave me butterflies
I felt them from afar
Before we ever even touched
You left your mark
I should've never let you in
You turn my walls paper thin
And all of these petals
Like breadcrumbs that you dropped
They led me right to my place in your arms
So hold me extra tight
And never leave my side
Cause what's the point of loving if I can't love a heart like yours?
And what's the point of trusting if we're always behind closed doors?
Swear I'd give you anything you wanted
Swear I'd give you anything you asked
So I picked a Tigerlily put it in a jar
You weren't my lover
But I sure wish you were
Oh I sure wish you were
Wish you were
I picked a Tigerlily put it in a jar
Filled it with water gave it life a little more
Before it wilted
To the bottom
I killed it
Before I started
