Flowers
Chai Khat Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

This was the first time we met
And baby this is no excuse
I forgot all the things, that I had planed
But i started to sweat
It´s so ridiculous that I am the one who fled
But this is how it goes, every time I think of you
I couldn't handle it

I know, I know it´s hard to take
You wanted a kiss your lips started to shake
But i stepped back an started to answer
Ill go now, I I I go now!

But in my dreams I created a scene
Where I found the right words for you

Caught in a spiral down, I tried to fix it out
Demons in my mind hold me down
Though I want you, I coudn't show you
What I really want, what I really need

I know, I know it´s hard to take
You wanted a kiss your lips started to shake
But i stepped back an started to answer
Ill go now, I I I go now!

I would have sent you flowers

Line by Line Meaning

This was the first time we met
We just met for the first time

And baby this is no excuse
Although I have no excuse for what happened next

I forgot all the things, that I had planed
I forgot everything I planned to say or do

But i started to sweat
I got nervous and began to sweat

It´s so ridiculous that I am the one who fled
It's silly that I'm the one who tried to run away

But this is how it goes, every time I think of you
This always happens whenever I think of you

I couldn't handle it
I couldn't handle the situation

I know, I know it´s hard to take
I understand it's difficult for you to deal with

You wanted a kiss your lips started to shake
You wanted a kiss from me and your lips started to quiver

But i stepped back an started to answer
But I stepped away and began to speak

Ill go now, I I I go now!
I'll leave now

But in my dreams I created a scene
In my dreams, I imagined a different scenario

Where I found the right words for you
Where I had the perfect words to say to you

Caught in a spiral down, I tried to fix it out
I was caught in a downward spiral and tried to fix the situation

Demons in my mind hold me down
My own fears and doubts were holding me back

Though I want you, I coudn't show you
Although I wanted you, I couldn't express my feelings to you

What I really want, what I really need
I didn't know how to express what I really wanted and needed

I would have sent you flowers
I wish I had sent you flowers instead of running away
