Bring My Flowers Now

Bring my flowers now, while I'm livin' I won't need your love when I'm gone Don't spend time, tears, or money on my old breathless body If your heart is in them flowers, bring 'em on All the miles cast a long shadow I'd take a couple back if I could I'd've learned to play guitar Told my daddy more I loved him But I believe, for the most part, I done good There's always sunrise and rainbows and babies And the little things I cherish on my way Even though one day They'll bury me and Jesse Ray I just know we're gonna ride again someday Bring my flowers now, while I'm livin' I won't need your love when I'm gone Don't spend time, tears, or money on my old breathless body Well, if your heart is in them flowers, bring 'em on The days are long but the years are lightning They're bright and they will never strike again I wish I'd been a better friend, a better daughter to my mother There's no goin' back when your back's against the wind So if you got love, then you're sittin' on a gold mine And you can't take it with you when you go So don't wait to help your sister Forgive your brother and your neighbor We all think we got the time until we don't Bring my flowers now, while I'm livin' I won't need your love when I'm gone Don't spend time, tears, or money on my old breathless body If your heart is in them flowers, bring 'em on If your heart is in them flowers, bring 'em on

Dear Rose, I loved how your lyrics encapsulate the essence of seizing the moment and cherishing the people and experiences that truly matter. Your reflection on life's fleeting nature, the regrets we may carry, and the importance of expressing love and appreciation while we still can is your words serve as a powerful message to embrace the present, to prioritize genuine connections, and to shower those we care about with love and gratitude before it's too late. Rose such heartfelt wisdom through your music. - Blessings, Daniel

I must listen to this, and wow what a captivating write this is, you are a sweet rose and you deserve more than flowers! So many though bring flowers and speak good of us when we are no longer here, so youve said it right when you said “ I won't need your love when I'm gone Don't spend time, tears, or money on my old breathless body If your heart is in them flowers, bring 'em on“ powerful! I dont know the song but i can imagine , how nice it must be, and i shall check also your video! Hugs
