About Flowers

"Flowers" is a song about a lost love. Marina reflects on a past relationship which ended due to the partner's careless actions and lack of appreciation for what the singer had to offer. She laments a situation in which the partner didn't take their relationship seriously, instead taking it for granted. The singer expresses regret that if the partner had appreciated them more by buying them flowers, they would have stayed in the relationship instead of being forced to walk away. .

Flowers Lyrics

[00:14.09] Now we reached the end
[00:16.47] I ran the marathon
[00:19.28] The road had many bends
[00:21.98] But we knew that all along
[00:24.90] I think it made me stronger
[00:27.83] But I would rather not
[00:30.67] Betray myself, just to keep your love at any cost
[00:36.56] And it's most tempting to give in
[00:40.56] When you hear the firin' shots
[00:43.11] When you're steps from winning back
[00:46.14] All the happiness you lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
[00:53.92] Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
[00:59.77] With every careless action, you let me slip away
[01:05.41] If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
[01:11.25] You didn't think I was serious, I guess you felt so safe
[01:16.98] If you just bought mе flowers, maybe I would've stayеd
[01:22.53] Maybe I would've stayed
[01:25.59] Maybe I would've stayed
[01:28.75] The seeds we planted grew
[01:31.56] But not like roses do
[01:34.31] We had the thorns and leaves
[01:37.08] But the buds, they never bloomed
[01:40.07] And now my future gleams
[01:42.99] With colors bold and bright
[01:46.31] In a home that's filled with love and hope
[01:49.10] And a life that just feels right
[01:51.82] And it's most tempting to give in
[01:55.79] When you're almost at the top
[01:58.46] When you're steps from winning back
[02:01.42] All the happiness you lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
[02:09.33] Lo-o-o-ost, lo-o-o-o-ost
[02:14.85] With every careless action, you let me slip away
[02:20.50] If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
[02:26.31] You didn't think I was serious, I guess you felt so safe
[02:32.04] If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
[02:37.70] Maybe I would've stayed
[02:40.74] Maybe I would've stayed
[02:43.92] I wouldn't have walked away
[02:46.57] I wouldn't have walked away
[02:49.81] And there's no heartbreak left to feel
[02:52.63] It happened years ago
[02:55.22] After you made your choices
[02:57.83] I melted away like snow
[03:01.01] 'Cause you like lying to yourself
[03:04.14] And now I'll never know
[03:07.08] What parts of your love were for real
[03:09.90] And what parts were for show
[03:12.78] With every careless action, you let me slip away
[03:18.38] If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
[03:24.15] You didn't think I was serious, I guess you felt so safe
[03:30.04] If you just bought me flowers, maybe I would've stayed
[03:35.79] Maybe I would've stayed
[03:38.54] Maybe I would've stayed
[03:41.41] I wouldn't have walked away
[03:44.39] I wouldn't have walked away.
[03:46.39]
