Text písně
Are you standing outside?
Looking up at the sky,
Cursing a wandering star,
Well if I were you,
I’d throw rocks at the moon,
And I’d say,
“Damn you wherever you are”
I don’t know where to start,
This cage ‘round my heart,
Locked up what I meant to say,
What I felt all along the way,
Just wondering how come,
I couldn’t take your breath away?
‘Cause I never sent roses,
I never did enough,
I didn’t know how to love you,
Though I loved you so much,
And I should have sent roses,
When you crossed my mind,
For no other reason,
Than the fact you were mine,
I should have sent roses
Looking back on my life,
If fate should decide,
I could do it all over again,
I’d build no more walls,
I’d stay true and recall,
Fragrance of you on the wind
You’ll get better than me,
Someone who can see,
Right from the start
give it all that you need,
And I’ll slip away,
Knowing I’m half
the man I should be
I never sent roses,
I never did enough,
I didn’t know how to love you,
Though I loved you so much,
And I should have sent roses,
When you crossed my mind,
For no other reason,
Than the fact you were mine,
I should have sent roses
