Century Lover Why Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
I need you
So far from hell, so far from you
'Cause heavens' hard and black and gray
You're just a someone gone away
You never said goodbye

[Chorus]
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus] Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?
Why, lover, why?
Why do flowers die?
Why, lover, why?
