Better let love slip away
I'm going insane all because I want you back
I need you back
This is the biggest regret I'll ever have to face
Oh yeah please don't leave me baby baby love me baby
It's driving me crazy crazy
Finally over me
You can tell me the truth
Or do you say
That I'm crazy
Finally over me
You can tell me the truth or I live
They came with the rain and the cold
Took the rolls left the stems in the road
I hid you deep in a cracked clay jar
By the porch where the broken boards are
Your petals shook like a tiny flag
Against a sky that was torn in black
I held my breath I held my hands
Like I could make the whole earth stand
One by one they all went down
Fields to ash and roots in the ground
But in my palm you stayed alive
A little fire I could not out find
The last flower to be seen
The last flower to be saved
I kept you here through the storm
I kept you here I kept you warm
The last flower to be saved
The last flower to be saved
You were the one I would not trade
They said let go let the garden go
But I knew your name in the dark below
I fed you rain from a cracked blue cup
Once you green led one new leaf up
And every dawn was a closed call
Every wind tried to make you fall
But you leaned in small and brave
Like you knew who your hands and say
One by one they all went down
Fields to ash and roots in the ground
But in my palm you stayed alive
A little fire I could not outfall
The last flower to be saved
The last flower to be saved
I kept you here through the storm
I kept you here I kept you warm
The last flower to be saved
The last flower to be saved
You were the one I would not trade
If the whole world had to bend
If the sun went hard again
I would carry you through every ruin
Every blue and if my name gets worn away
Let it fall like winter rain
You'll still open in my hand
You'll still stand
The last flower to be saved
The last flower to be saved
I kept you here through the storm
I kept you here
I kept you warm
The last flower to be saved
The last flower to be saved
You were the one I would not trade
