Plastic Flowers

If sunsets lasted for hours
Would we still pull over on the side of the road
Would I still be talking about her
If I knew what I had and I never let go

All good things must come to an end
Would we care quite as much if they never did
A rose is just an hour glass
On the counter
Temporary makes our hearts beat a little louder
Probably why we don’t buy people plastic flowers

If you could buy time down at the drug store
Would you spend it or waste it kind of carelessly
Would you see your family less or morе
I bet you’d take them all for grantеd eventually

Cause all good things must come to an end
Would we care quite as much if they never did
A rose is just an hour glass on the counter
Temporary makes our hearts beat a little louder
Probably why we don't buy people plastic flowers

Knowing it’s fleeting and fragile
It makes me want to hold love tighter
Even if we’re bound to unravel
The ending makes the right now brighter

Cause all good things must come to an end
Would we care quite as much if they never did
A rose is just an hour glass
On the counter
Temporary makes our hearts beat a little louder
And why we don’t buy people plastic flowers
