Burlap String - Courtney Marie Andrews

In a small West Coast town

There’s a family and a house

Where the memories of us belong

We used to live there

Free of worry, free of care

Free of pain and what we’d become

If I could go back now

I’d pick you wildflowers

Tie them in burlap string

Tell you what you mean to me

Some days are good, some are bad

Some days I want what we had

Some days I talk myself into a lie

I’ve grown cautious, I’ve grown up

I’m a skeptic of love

Don’t wanna lose what I might find

If I could go back now

I’d pick you wildflowers

Tie them in burlap string

Tell you what you mean to me

Time eases, but can’t erase

The sad look on true love’s face

When you know what your heart needs

And you tell them you must be free

But deep down you know the truth

There’s no replacing someone like you

If I could go back now

I’d pick you wildflowers

Tie them in burlap string

Tell you what you mean to me
