You know how much I miss you
How long will I still keep it?
Wish I had a choice, even a chance
But I can?t be the petals of your roses.

Keep them as long as you need
If I hold you tight it?s because I want you
Smile upon an order, it?s more like a plead.
You know I just might, I?m burning inside.

I can?t be the petals of your roses
Keep it alive on that garden bench.
Your bright yellow dress won?t fade the pink
Of the flowers with your sweetest scent.
You watched me go away
I looked back to try and say
?Think of a bench, look at the petals,
And don?t cry it?s not goodbye.?

Keep the bench to ourselves
Upon where I hid two flowers,
When I was the petals of your roses
For the first time in those small hours.

Pink and red petals in pages
Tear stain made the paper thin
But I would do it all the same
Keep it unwritten till I buy you a drink.
