Picked First

[Verse 1] Took the first flight I could get home Checked in to the front desk Walked up to your floor Shared a couple bites of cheesecake Talked about the summers We spent on your porch [Pre-Chorus] And you were tryin' not to cry for me And I was tryin' not to cry for you Yeah, you really, really were the best But you left way too soon [Chorus] Oh, dear, I miss you all the time I wish we'd never said goodbye Like daisies in the dirt The most beautiful flowers Always get picked first [Verse 2] We were sittin' in the silence Listenin' to voices over the TV I was starin' out the window Holdin' on to your hand Didn't wanna leave [Pre-Chorus] You were tryin' not to cry for me (You were tryin' not to cry for me) And I was tryin' not to cry for you (I was tryin' not to cry for you) Yeah, you really, really were the best But you left way too soon [Chorus] Oh, dear, I miss you all the time I wish we'd never said goodbye Like daisies in the dirt The most beautiful flowers Always get picked first Oh, dear, you left me way too fast I wish they saved the best for last Like daisies in the dirt The most beautiful flowers Always get picked first [Outro] You were tryin' not to cry for me (You were tryin' not to cry for me), mm And I was tryin' not to cry for you (I was tryin' not to cry for you)
