Intro
A couple of pretty flowers, thats what I brought I to you
I saw you through a broken window, with a different point of view
You had signs of depression, from a long line of sin
And your face tells a story, bout the places you have been, I love you so
I thought you should know
And that muddy waters flowin, and as you take my hand
Past the creek down by the holler, through your daddys land
And I could buy you a diamond, but I cannot change your world
Cuz I ain't got no money, youll never be my girl
no
I thought you should know
Break
You was gonna be a singer, and a big movie star
But you cant catch no breaks baby, and Hollywood is hard
Now you work down at the Time Out, off of 155
And youre dancing for your dollar, just tryin to stay alive, it hurts me so
I thought you should know
And You feed your addiction, with your crystal meth
And I plea for your life, as it takes you to your death
You make your deal with the devil, as your looks begin to fade
I saw you laughin through the tears, as you slowly slipped away, I watched you go
I thought you should know yeah I watched you go I thought you should know
Break
And that cold rain is pourin, as they lower you in a grave
I can barely recognize you, in your fragile state
No more signs of depression, from a long time ago
I throw in a pretty flower, as they slowly laid you low, it was a rose
I thought you should know there it was a rose I thought you should know
Break
A couple of pretty flowers, thats what I brought to you
I saw you through a broken window, with a different point of view
