Wilted Flower - My Next Lover Lyrics

You watched me age 19
Bury my dad
And you asked for his permission to become my wife
The day before he died

And he'll never know my next lover
No he'll never know my next lover
No he'll never know my next lover

Coffee and cigarettes back when I took part in neither
Too young to understand but look at me now
Pinot in a can in one hand
Cigarette in the other
Putting it out on my arm because that hurts less than you lover

I don't want to deal with death
I don't want to shake his hand anymore
He took you from me way too soon
And I don't want to deal with death

When did you fall out of love
Do you remember the first time you looked at me
And didn't feel anything
Did it happen overnight or did it slowly seep in

Coffee and cigarettes back when I took part in neither
Too young to truly understand but look at me now
Pinot in a can in one hand, cigarette in the other
Putting it out on my arm because that hurts less than you lover
Putting it out on my arm because that hurts less than you lover
Putting it out on my arm because that hurts less than you

They both left a scar
But that hurt less than you
And they both left a scar
But that hurt less than you
And they both left a scar
But that hurt less than you
And they both left a scar
But that hurt less than you
