[Verse 1]
Met you in the bathroom queue
Thought that I'd seen you before
Singing songs that I thought that I knew
But I guess I was wrong
You were so rootless then
And it seemed romantic
But I guess that we all have to learn
I guess that we all have to learn
[Chorus]
To bloom where we're planted
Bloom where we're planted
I could still want you
I could still want you
But my heart's not in it
[Verse 2]
The last time I saw you
We were standing in a crowd
Pills and cold water curing your hangover
Wonder how you're doing now
We were so restless then
And it all felt tragic
But I guess that we all have to learn
Guess that we all have to learn
[Chorus]
To bloom where we're planted
Take love where it's handed
I could still want you
I could still want you
But my heart's not in it
[Outro]
That part is finished
We've all got to choose
We've all got to choose
A life and live with it

[It] is about letting go. Accepting certain people are gone, certain parts of life are over. Learning to accept and live with regret and ‘what ifs’ even if it stings a bit.
