Delicate Things Lyrics

Daisies and lilacs, a rose at my feet

The petals are scattered all around me

But don't you know that

These are all delicate things

And once picked, they won't stay pretty

What would have happened

If I hadn't met you

Would I still be broken

Or wishing I was dead too

Thank you for all of

These years that I've wasted

I couldn't have done it without you

My hands are dirty

I'm no longer clean

You said that you loved me

Now I really see

You just loved my colors

And my beautiful things

But once picked they won't stay pretty

What would you do

If I told you I loved you

Then broke down your walls

And locked you in my room

Don't say you'd be happy

Cause nobody could be

You fell apart just like me

Daisies and lilacs, a rose at my feet

The petals are scattered all around me

But don't you know

That these are all delicate things

And once picked, they won't stay pretty

Once picked they won't stay pretty

Once picked they won't stay pretty
