Flowers By the Side of the Road

Her Mama cussed she was out of film

As her baby came down those stairs looking right at her boyfriend

His hands, they shook as he pinned on her corsage

And she almost cried 'cause she'd liked this guy from the very startShould've been just another first and not the last

The beautiful moment in two lives

When they looked back but now they'reFlowers by the side of the road yeah, that's all that's left

Of the hopes and dreams of two seventeen year-olds

Some dreams live on and some, they don't

But all that's left to know, all that's left to show

Are flowers by the side of the roadCould've been me, could've been you

How many times have I said I've just had one or two

It's a sobering thought, it's a sobering sight

How like a bad, bad dream you can lose everythingOn a careless night, be the one who lives

Be the one who's gone be the mother whose heart

Has to somehow go on she'll leaveFlowers by the side of the road yeah, that's all that's left

Of the hopes and dreams of two seventeen year-olds

Some dreams live on and some, they don't

All that's left to know, all that's left to show

Are flowers by the side of the road, flowers by the side of the roadIt could've been me, it could've been you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
