A sign of time I lost my life, forgot to die Like any man, a frightened guy I'm keeping memories inside Of wounded love But I know I'm more than sad and more today I'm eating words too hard to say A single tear and I'm away Away and gone I need you So far from hell, so far from you 'Cause heaven's hard and black and gray You're just a someone gone away You never said goodbye Why, lover why? Why do flowers die? Why, lover why? Everytime I hear your voice, you heard my name You built the fire, wet the flame I swim for life, can't take the rain No turning back I need you So far from hell, so far from you 'Cause heaven's hard and black and gray You're just a someone gone away You never said goodbye Why, lover why? Why do flowers die? Why, lover why? Why, lover why ? Why do flowers die ? Why, lover why
