She Gets the Flowers - Beth McCarthy

Tell me what she has that I don’t?

Why you were so fast to let go of us?

'Cause she’s all you wanted

When it was my heart you didn’t want it

Why wasn’t I cast in your show?

'Cause I gave you everything

All my friends are saying it’s you, it’s not me

Wish I could believe them

But she gets the flowers, right?

The posts made about her

A love that is perfect, a love I deserved, yeah

A love that I gave

I got excuses and you got to use this

Leave me in the dust, with nothing and just, walk away

But she gets the flowers, right?

She gets the flowers

Tell me why I wasn’t enough

After all that I gave up for you

Was it too much to ask

For just a part of what I gave you back, oh-ooh-oh-oh

Why was I so hard to love?

(So hard to love)

And you found your person

Oh, there’s nothing worse than knowing she’s happy

The way I wanted to be

And she gets the flowers, right?

I got excuses, you got to use this

Leave me in the dust, with nothing and just, walk away

And she gets the flowers, right?

Yes, she gets the flowers

Oh, oh, oh

Do her eyes look better when they shine?

Do her lips taste sweeter than mine?

Does she look prettier when she cries?

(Cries)

Was I just too hard to handle?

Too emotionally unstable?

You don’t want me

And I can’t change your mind

She gets the flowers, right?
