lyrics

Hey Laura
What’s going on
What did I say
Tell me what went wrong
Oh where have you gone
Your rose withered away
before summer came along

Meanwhile,
I’ve been thinking up in my room
Maybe I should call
Maybe its too soon
Thinking of the perfect words to say
As the sun leaves with the day

Rose petals fall
When she doesn’t call
Maybe she loves me
Maybe not at all
Questions that are driving me insane
Tell me whose to blame

A Spring day is wasted away
Looking out my window
Tree branches sway
And moving with the breeze
Flowers fall like leaves

And I’m thinking hey laura
What’s going on
What did I say
Tell me what went wrong
Oh where have you gone
before summer came along
rose petals are falling

Hey Laura
Did you change your mind
Or was it made this whole time
Oh I got to know tell me one thing
Before I go

Those days when calling again and again
We planned meeting Thursday and dreamed till then
Was I everything you pictured me to be
Tell me what do you see
Her perfume still fills the air
Her glass is still empty and I still stare
At rose petals falling to the ground
But there’s still no ringing sound

A Spring day is wasted away
Looking out my window
Tree branches sway
And moving with the breeze
Flowers fall like leaves

And I’m thinking hey Laura
What’s going on
What did I say
Tell me what went wrong
Oh where have you gone
before summer came along
rose petals are falling

Rose petals are falling
Now that you are gone
Rose petals are falling
Before summer comes along
Rose petals are falling
Now that you are gone
Rose petals are falling
Woah oh oh

In hindsight
While the stars are bright
Looking at the pictures of smiles that lasted through the night
Woah oh oh
Laura baby
I close my eyes
As one tear dries
Thinking what could have been
And still asking why
Asking why, asking why, woah oh oh

Petals falling (falling down, falling down)
Rose petals are falling (falling down, falling down)
Rose petals are falling
Now that you are gone
Rose petals are falling
Woah oh oh
