One year ago, this day you left me and went away.
I gave you a flower and you said: we were through,
you stood there and watched me walk away from you.
We broke up before, and got back together,
but this time I thought it would last forever.
The phone rang, I spoke and said, "I’m so sorry, I love you"
A man said: let me speak to your dad.
Dad hung up and said: Sorry, honey, but your ex-boyfriend is dead.
A flash of our love passed through my eyes as I cried,
Dad tried to comfort me, and then he said
"There’s one thing they can't understand,
they couldn't remove the flower from your boyfriend's hand
