Think about your lips and the way they kiss

There’s so much I really miss about you

Sitting on the beach you were still in reach

And I haven’t felt free without you

All of the memories feel like magic

All of the fighting seems so sweet

All that we were my love was tragic

And you’re the last thing that I need

So I lay a dozen roses for the lover that I’ve lost

I stand by all my choices even though I paid the cost

Oh, those nights the lows and highs I shared them all with you

So I lay a dozen roses

I lay them there I lay them there for you

Ooh

You’ve been on my mind every single night

I can’t visualize life without you

I’ve been tryna go a week without losing sleep

But there’s something that I need to go through

All of the memories feel like magic

All of the fighting seems so sweet

All that we were my love was tragic

And you’re the last thing that I need

So I lay a dozen roses for the lover that I’ve lost

I stand by all my choices even though I paid the cost

Oh, those nights the lows and highs I shared them all with you

So I lay a dozen roses

I lay them there I lay them there for you

So I lay a dozen roses for the lover that I’ve lost

I stand by all my choices even though I paid the cost

Oh, those nights the lows and highs I shared them all with you

So I lay a dozen roses

I lay them there I lay them there for you
