[Verse 1]
Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you all it does is just tear me down
'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name

[Pre-Chorus]
It all just sounds like "ooh"
Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize

[Chorus]
That I should've bought you flowers and held your hand
I should've gave you all my hours when I had the chance
And take you to every party 'cause all you wanted to do was dance
And now my baby's dancin', but she's dancin' with another man

[Verse 2]
My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
Now I'll never, never get to clean up this mess I made, no
It haunts me every time I close my eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
It all just sounds like "ooh"
Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize

[Chorus]
I should've bought you flowers and held your hand
I should've gave you all my hours when I had the chance
And take you to every party 'cause all you wanted to do was dance
And now my baby's dancin', but she's dancin' with another man

[Bridge]
Although it hurts I'll be the first to say
That I was wrong
Oh, I know it's probably much too late to try and apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know

[Outro]
I hope he buys you flowers, hope he holds your hand
Gives you all his hours when he has the chance
Takes you to every party, 'cause I remember how much you loved to dance
Do all the things I should've done when I was your man
Do all the things I should've done when I was your man
