if sunsets lasted for hours

would we still pull over on the side of the road

would i still be talking about her

if i knew what i had and i'd never let go

all good things must come to an end

would we care quite as much if they never did

a rose is just an hourglass on the counter

temporary makes our hearts beat a little louder

probably why we don't buy people plastic flowers

if you could buy time down at the drug store

would you spend it or waste it kinda carelessly

would you see your family less or more

i bet you take them all for granted eventually

cause all good things must come to an end

would we care quite as much if they never did

a rose is just an hourglass on the counter

temporary makes our hearts beat a little louder

probably why we don't buy people classic flowers

knowing that it's fleeting and fragile

it makes me wanna hold love tighter

and even if we're bound to unravel

the ending makes the right now brighter

cause all good things must come to an end

would we care quite as much as they never did

a rose is just an hourglass on the counter

temporary makes our hearts beat a little louder

probably why we don't buy people plastic flowers
