Picked First

Took the first flight I could get home Checked into the front desk Walked up to your floor Shared a couple bites of cheesecake Talked about the summers We spent on your porch And you were trying not to cry for me And I was trying not to cry for you Yeah, you really, really were the best But you left way too soon Oh, dear, I miss you all the time I wish we never said goodbye Like daisies in the dirt The most beautiful flowers Always get picked first We were sitting in the silence Listening to voices over the TV I was staring out the window Holding onto your hand, didn't wanna leave You were trying not to cry for me And I was trying not to cry for you Yeah, you really, really were the best But you left way too soon Oh, dear, I miss you all the time I wish we never said goodbye Like daisies in the dirt The most beautiful flowers Always get picked first Oh, dear, you left me way too fast I wish they saved the best for last Like daisies in the dirt The most beautiful flowers Always get picked first You were trying not to cry for me, mm And I was trying not to cry for you
