Verse 1

Same bed, but it feels just a little bit bigger now

Our song on the radio, but it don't sound the same

When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down

'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name

Pre-Chorus

It all just sounds like (Ooh, ooh)

Mm, too young, too dumb to realize

Chorus

That I should've bought you flowers

And held your hand

Shoulda gave you all my hours

When I had the chance

Take you to every party

'Cause all you wanted to do was dance

Now my baby's dancin'

But she's dancin' with another man

Verse 2

Uh, my pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways

Caused a good, strong woman like you to walk out my life

Now I'll never, never get to clean up the mess I made, oh

And that haunts me every time I close my eyes

Pre-Chorus

It all just sounds like (Ooh, ooh)

Mm, too young, too dumb to realize

Chorus

That I should've bought you flowers

And held your hand

Shoulda gave you all my hours

When I had the chance

Take you to every party

'Cause all you wanted to do was dance

Now my baby's dancin'

But she's dancin' with another man

Bridge

Although it hurts

I'll be the first to say that

I was wrong

Oh, I know I'm probably much too late

To try and apologize for my mistakes

But I just want you to know

Chorus

I hope he buys you flowers

I hope he holds your hand

Give you all his hours

When he has the chance

Take you to every party

'Cause I remember how much you love to dance

Do all the things I should've done

When I was your man

Do all the things I should've done

When I was your man
