[Verse 1]
A sign of time
I lost my life, forgot to die
Like any man, a frightened guy
I'm keeping memories inside
Of wounded love
[Verse 2]
But I know
I'm more than sad and more today
I'm eating words too hard to say
A single tear and I'm away
Away and gone
[Pre-Chorus]
I need you
So far from hell, so far from you
'Cause heavens' hard and black and gray
You're just a someone gone away
You never said goodbye
[Chorus]
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?
[Verse 3]
Everytime
I hear your voice, you heard my name
You built the fire, wet the flame
I swim for life, can't take the rain
No turning back
[Pre-Chorus]
I need you
So far from hell, so far from you
'Cause heavens' hard and black and gray
You're just a someone gone away
You never said goodbye
[Chorus]
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?
