Erick Baker - Plastic Flowers Lyrics

The sink is empty and still leaks water
I count the time by every drop that falls
The grass is high how you like it
I can see it tickle your ankles now
The screen door is screaming at me
It’s the only thing I’ve talked to in days

Sorry I’m late but I bought these for you
Plastic flowers for your bed
Someday soon I’ll be by your side
And your flowers will never die

Our house smells like burnt coffee
I always save a cup for you
I can’t turn the light off to your closet
Or the room where you taught me to love

Sorry I’m late but I bought these for you
Plastic flowers for your bed
Someday soon I’ll be by your side
And your flowers will never die

Sorry I'm late but I bought these for you
