Used To Bring Me Flowers

You used to bring me flowers and we'd dance out in the rain My heart is still the same heart but it's hurting once again You used to say you loved me and held me close at night But now I'm left in pieces all we ever do is fight Take my hand again and hold me relieve me of this pain Give my heart the passion like you used to once again Tell me that you love me and that everything's okay Show me one good reason to make me want to stay Love was ours for the taking we really had it all But it's gone like it was never here at all Where did it go to all the loving we once shared You used to bring me flowers to show how much you cared The sun and stars were ours once we danced beneath them all But somewhere in the in the mists of time we let our loving fall Now my heart is aching longing to feel love again Bring me back my flowers and let's dance on through the rain Instead you sit in silence and ignore the words I say I don't think I can take much more of living life this way My needs may not mean anything to you but they are there I really can't go on like this I need someone who cares Love was ours for the taking we really had it all But it's gone like it was never here at all Where did it go to all the loving we once shared You used to bring me flowers to show how much you cared Each passing day it's growing this feeling love has flown I try to make a difference but I feel so alone You shut me out completely and it's like I'm not here Ignore my touch and hurt me you don't see my tears I guess this is the end then I can't go on in this pain You used to bring me flowers and we'd dance out in the rain Yes this is the end now, we can't do this again You never bring me flowers we can't dance in the rain Love was ours for the taking we really had it all But it's gone like it was never here at all Where did it go to all the loving we once shared You used to bring me flowers to show how much you cared

It's so sad when two people slowly drift apart and it feels like there is nothing you can do to recapture the love. Very nicely written, Jane.

Thank you. This is actually a duet, male/female. I have a recording of it with a happy ending. xx
