"I Can't Buy You Flowers" lyrics

"I Can't Buy You Flowers"

It's a small town but it's something
And I can't give you up yet, so
I can't buy you flowers round here no more
Does he call you? Does he mean it?
When he says that he loves you, I don't believe it
No, I don't believe it

I don't wanna fake it
I just wanna see your shadow
From the headlights
When I'm parked outside your street
And what do you want with me
If I don't make you happy?
'Cause I don't wanna fake it
I just wanna see your shadow, your shadow

We were necking, we were old friends
Was our favorite spot in the backwoods, I
Told your mom I'd have you home soon
Then I said I loved you, you said I'm crazy
Now, what is all this back-and-forth shit for?
I can't buy you flowers round here no more

I don't wanna fake it
I just wanna see your shadow
From the headlights
When I'm parked outside your street
And what do you want with me
If I don't make you happy?
'Cause I don't wanna fake it
I just wanna see your shadow, your shadow

Right where we lied
That's where we died
Right where we lied

I don't wanna fake it
I just wanna see your shadow
From the headlights
When I'm parked outside your street
And what do you want with me
If I don't make you happy?
'Cause I don't wanna fake it
I just wanna see your shadow, your shadow

Your shadow
