Flowers on the Wind

Lyrics

I watched him ride into the night,
Just to bring me roses, pure and white,
He smiled and said, “I’ll be right back,”
But the stars went cold, the sky turned black.

The engine roared, then silence fell,
A twist of fate, a ringing bell,
He flew away, beyond my reach,
Now the flowers never made it to my feet.

And I cry for the love that I lost,
A life cut short, oh, what a cost,
The flowers he never got to give,
But in my heart, they’ll always live.
I miss his touch, I miss his smile,
I carry this guilt all the while.
Was it my wish that sent him away?
Now I’m left with this pain to stay.

The morning light feels cold and wrong,
He’s not here to hum our favorite song,
I see his jacket, still by the door,
But he’ll never wear it anymore.

I hold the vase, it’s empty still,
A promise broken, against my will,
I never meant for him to go,
But now I’m lost in the undertow.

If I had known that night would be our last,
I’d have held him close, let the moment pass,
But now I’m here, with only his ghost,
The memory of what I wanted most.

He rode for me, but never came back,
Now I’m caught in this endless track,
Of what ifs and bitter tears,
Drowning in my deepest fears.

So I whisper to the wind, my love,
Wherever you are, high above,
The flowers never came, but I still care,
And I’ll hold you close, though you’re not there.
I’ll hold you close, though you’re not there…
