It was one Sunday evening, after the evening mass Simone opted to drop by a flowershop to buy a bouquet of flowers for her little altar. While picking up one simple flower arrangement, a man stood beside her and bought one beautiful bouquet of white roses, and she even saw him holding one huggable teddy bear. He seemed so happy and excited, then she suddenly remembered one conversation she had with her bestfriend. She remembered telling her, the moment a man she likes/love and woes her and gives her a dozen or atleast a stem of white rose, she will give her sweet "yes". Diane said it was absurd to just answer someone and makes him her boyfriend because he gave her flowers.Then she said, if someone will sing a lovesong for her, she will love him. Simone seemed so naive to think that way, but in her heart, she knew it was more than the flowers or the love song.
Then a sweet man came along. He befriended her and after a long while they became so close that all those who sees them thought they were together. Even their own friends believed that they are madly inlove with each other.
And they certainly did...she fell for her and believed he fell for her too. They had good memories together. But nothing lasts forever...Despite all the foundation they laid for their relationship to be strong, they had to separate ways. And as if, the present time was making fun of her, she heard a song being played in the radio...
You don't bring me flowers
You don't sing me love songs
You hardly talk to me anymore
When I come through the door at the end of the day...
It was an old song, and she doesn't even know who the singer is, but the lyrics hit her straight to the heart.
I remember when you couldn't wait to love me
Used to hate to leave me
Now after loving me late at night
She remembered him, the man she truly love. He didn't give her flowers when she met him, but she still fell for him, deep.
When it's good for you, babe
And you're feeling all right
When you just roll over and turn out the light...
And you don't bring me flowers anymore
It used to be so natural
It used to be...
To talk about forever
Mmm...
They used to talk about the future, but her future would not be with him anymore. He sang a lovesong for her, but that song seemed to gone meaningless...
But used-to-bes don't count anymore
They just lay on the floor
Till we sweep them away
And baby I remember all the things you taught me
I learned how to laugh and I learned how to cry
Nonetheless, the time she spent with him was one of the happiest moment of her life.
Well, I learned how to love and I learned how to lie
She was just so thankful with him because he honestly admitted that what they had is not for keeps. And he dont want to hurt her anymore.
So you think I could learn how to tell you goodbye
So you think I could learn how to tell you goodbye
Goodbyes seemed to be never ending. Every separation was so hard for them. But he don't love her anymore, so she set him free...
You don't bring me flowers any more...
As much as she wanted to hold on.. she just can't keep him.
Maybe next time, she can learn how to tell goodbye to this love she feels for him...
Well, you think I could learn how to tell you goodbye...
Cause you don't say you need me;
You don't sing me love songs;
You don't bring me flowers anymore...
Maybe, next time, she will learn to forget the feeling she has for him.
But in the end of the day...
She doesn't regret that he didn't give her flowers. She doesn't regret loving him...
