You don't have to bring me flowers Won't you just let me be? 'Cause every time you try to womb me, it wounds me Don't leave no flowers here for me It looks like the moonlight has left I don't see much magic ahead Trying to say you're sorry with whiskey on your breath Is like trying to clear the smoke with cigarettes You don't have to bring me flowers I'll just leave 'em here for dead 'Cause when this thing goes sour I'm reliving all the hours you'll spend losing me instead I think a little sunlight will do To help me clear my head o' you 'Cause trying to say it's over while I'm laying in your bed Is like letting go with honey on my hand You don't have to bring me flowers I'm just begging you to leave Go ahead and call me coward But finally your power has lost its hold on me Oh-oh-ooh I'm letting go Oh-oh-ooh I'm letting go Oh-oh-ooh I'm letting go Won't you let me go? If you're gonna bring me flowers Leave them on a memory At last the love we had together And it's better if we let it rest in peace Won't you let it rest in peace? Don't leave no flowers here for me Don't leave no flowers here for me
