Lyrics
I might have burned some bridges and I might have changed my mind but you know that I'll love you till the end of time I made a few mistakes I guess And I might have seen things wrong now all I got are memories and a song She tells me to stop and smell the roses and I tell her to watch out for the thorns She tells me she wants to look for rainbows and I tell her there's gonna be a storm I might have turned some pages and I might have burned the book but you know I gave more love than I took I might have changed my tune if I'd known a little more Like the look in your eyes when you closed the door (the door) She tells me to stop and smell the roses and I tell her to watch out for the thorns She tells me she wants to look for rainbows and I tell her there's gonna be a storm I don't know what I did wrong said I don't know what I did so wrong She tells me to stop and smell the roses and I tell her to watch out for the thorns She tells me she wants to look for rainbows and I tell her there's gonna be a storm
