Thomas Burgundy - Flourish lyrics

Man it's crazy thinking
When you thought you knew what love was
And you were willing to settle for that
Or nothing at all
Just because, it wasn't even really love
But when you actually find it
It's more of a mutual understand
That you can't explain
And I can't explain it but-

My neighborhood is running out of roses
I done picked them all for you
And all of my fears and my doubts
Wilt away when with you only with you
With you with you
We both got some growing to do
Just so blessed I'm growing with you
Growing with you
Lord knows I got growing to do
Just so blessed I'm growing with you
Girl let me grow with you grow with you


Only you girl you're my sunshine
And my rain (You're my sunshine & my rain)
Your pain is my pain, you're my everything
You're my everything you are everything

As the street light peeks through the blinds
And you're asleep I see peace on your mind
When you breathe on my cheek I feel like
I feel life i've finally seen the other side
That you hide so well, time sure tells:
Time flies
But counting time is for the birds
But often times
Time is the only thing that tells
What I can't put into words
So trying to put your inward beauty in words-
Beauty ain't the word
Nah it's so much more than that
But Im'ma keep on searching
You know it's worth it when we
Both feel we don't deserve it
And just because something needs work
Don't mean it's not perfect
You know how God works it
You helped me find my lost
Purpose when I felt worthless
'Cause I love you more than I love myself
But through loving you
I learned how to love myself
And I know it sounds crazy but I
Think I finally understand how God
Can still love me, someone so imperfect
& broken 'cause love is intrinsic
It's above all else
'Cause love is crying in the
Bathtub with our clothes on
And I ain't done trying, as the sun rises
While it's cold out
But somehow it's not reassuring knowing how
Death is the only one that
Can take you from me
Cause I know you think of him often

Just let me run my fingers through your hair
Don't runaway, just let me hold you
Yeah we're both scared
And I'm never running low on empathy
We've been
On the same wavelength since day one
But what you've been through is just not fair
Because I see a rose that's
Forgotten it's a rose
Forgotten it's true beauty 'cause
All it knows is
Being picked and mistreated and tossed away
And all I am is a glass of water
Just hoping I have what you need
I ask for you to join inside of me and stay
Please just stay
Cause I never knew what love really was
Till I found it waiting inside you
Till I found it waiting inside you
Till i found it waiting because
I never knew what love really was
Till I found it waiting in you

But they say nothing last forever
What makes love the exception?
Nothing lasts forever
What makes love the exception?

I don't know, but all I know is God is love
And love is eternal
Love is not something we can create, but
Rather something we find
And I know I found it i also know
That my neighbors are getting
Pretty upset because I
Don't have enough money to be buying you
Roses every time I see you so, I've
Been stealing them from my neighbors' garden
And they're starting to notice
I feel kinda bad about it
But, I'm not gonna stop, because
Happy birthday
