I know he sees them whenever he comes here
And they're only 3.99
I wondered the last time he brought some home for me
It's probably been two valentines
Yeah, I know he's been working, he's tired and busy
I guess he just hasn't had time
Sure would be nice to have someone like that
Who'd try just a little, is that too much to ask?
Did I push him away?
'Cause I don't know when or why things changed
Maybe I'm crazy for staying this long
When half the time it's like nobody's home
Maybe I'm just not strong enough to walk away
But I bought myself flowers today
He used to surprise me, open my car door
Do little things to make me smile
Yeah, I guess he stopped tryin' once he won me over
It hasn't been that way in a while
Yeah, these days we're just getting by
Sure would be nice to have someone like that
Who'd try just a little, is that too much to ask?

He didn't even notice them sittin' in the jar
That sure says a lot about where we are
Sure would be nice to have someone like that
Who'd try just a little, is that too much to ask?
Did I push him away?
'Cause I don't know when or why things changed
Oh, maybe I'm crazy for staying this long
When half the time it's like nobody's home
Maybe I'm just not strong enough to walk away
