[00:00.00]Asking For Flowers - Kathleen Edwards
[00:18.66]It's complicated
[00:23.03]Technically I'm certified
[00:27.22]A walking declaration
[00:31.12]Of everything I couldn't get right
[00:35.86]Time is just an anchor
[00:40.25]But 7 years I think I'm right
[00:44.45]Now you've changed your number
[00:48.09]It's like a noose around my life
[00:52.94]Every pill I took in vain
[00:57.34]Every meal for you I made
[01:01.64]Every penny I put away
[01:10.33]Asking for flowers
[01:14.05]Is like asking you to be nice
[01:18.79]Don't tell me you're too tired
[01:21.25]10 years I've been working nights
[01:40.31]My life is like a picture left
[01:44.60]Out too long in the sun
[01:48.57]Now I'm trying to remember all
[01:53.01]The faces of the names I've loved
[01:57.36]And all that's left of me now is
[02:02.02]A cigarette burning bright
[02:06.02]And a fading memory of all the things
[02:11.67]I tried to get right
[02:14.81]Every pill I took in vain
[02:19.10]Every meal for you I made
[02:23.39]Every penny I put away
[02:32.03]Asking for flowers
[02:35.62]Is like asking you to be nice
[02:40.35]Don't tell me you're too tired
[02:42.73]10 years I've been working nights
[03:18.84]Every pill I took in vain
[03:23.23]Every meal for you I made
[03:27.48]Every bill I went and paid
[03:31.86]Every card I signed my name
[03:36.01]Every time I poured my heart out
[03:40.39]Every threat you made to move out
[03:44.70]Every cruel word you let just slip out
[03:48.91]Every cruel word you let just slip out
[04:10.59]Asking for flowers
[04:13.92]Is like asking you to be nice
[04:18.64]Don't tell me you're too tired
[04:21.03]10 years I've been working nights
[04:27.40]Don't tell me you're too tired
[04:29.58]10 years I've been working nights
