Lyrics
[verse]
A petal drifted down beneath the tree,
The night you told your lies of love to me.
I should have known that beauty come and gone,
Was just a warning dressed in white at dawn.
[chorus]
A petal fell the night you said you cared,
And like the petal, all your promises just cleared.
I watched it fall and watched my heart fall too,
A petal fell the same night I lost you.
[verse]
The moon was honest even when you weren't,
It watched the petals scatter, watched them burn.
I picked one up to keep before it died,
The only truth left standing at my side.
[chorus]
A petal fell the night you said you cared,
And like the petal, all your promises just cleared.
I watched it fall and watched my heart fall too,
A petal fell the same night I lost you.
[bridge]
Every spring will bring the flowers back again,
But some things once they fall, they don't return.
Still I'll walk beneath that same old tree,
And remember what love used to mean to me.
[chorus]
A petal fell the night you said you cared,
And like the petal, all your promises just cleared.
I watched it fall and watched my heart fall too,
A petal fell the same night I lost you.
