Holly Macve - Behind the Flowers Lyrics




The sun falls down behind that railway track
The road is long but I aint turning back
The last word he said, was the first time I felt free
The last breath he took, was the first breath I did breath

Behind the flowers, my mother planted
There lies a house painted back
And I was guilty, I kept my mouth shut
Until the ground beneath me cracked

Lord I told you that I needed you,
I've been forgiving, and i've always been true
But you let him pass the line, the line I carefully drew
You let him pass the line, till it became nothing new

Under the willow tree, I stood silently
Knowing what I was about to do
No tears did I shed, no doubts did I get
When I watched the bullet go through

And as the moonlit hit his eyes
His hand covered up my cries
I couldn't stop him if I tried
I was nothing but a child
I was nothing but a child

The last word he said, was the first time i felt free
The last breath he took, was the first time I felt free

Behind the flowers, my mother planted
There lies a house painted back
And I was guilty, I kept my mouth shut
Until the ground beneath me cracked
