You smile like a girl in tears
Who's wasted all her years
Searching for someone you always knew could not exist
You're only angry when you close your eyes
Resting roses on their sides
You left it all behind you
You've already taken too much time
Funeral flowers on my mind
Take me out and let me show you the night
Bringing dreams from dark to light
You pray for rain and then you just complain
I've made a mess out of much less
You've made mountains out of broken men
You are as tortured and unwanted as those letters you'll never send
You've already taken too much time
Funeral flowers on my mind
I've already taken all your time
Funeral flowers on my mind
I'm nervous but I'm not impressed
You were alone in a party dress
Cnd there's no more words to say they all got lost along the way
I only hope you can find a place
That has a quiet familiar grace
You can rest your weary head until you see your last day
