Billie Eilish "Wildflower" Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Things fall apart
And time breaks your heart
I wasn't there but I know
She was your girl
You showed her the world
You fell out of love and you both let go

[Pre-Chorus]
She was cryin’ in my shoulder
All I could do was hold her
Only made us closer
Until she lied
And I know that you love me
You don't need to remind me
I should put it all behind me
Shouldn't I?

[Chorus]
But I see her in the back of my mind
All the time
Like a fever
Like I’m burnin' alive by her side
Did I cross the line? Mm
Mm

[Verse 2]
Well, good things don't last (Good things don't last)
And life moves so fast (Life moves so fast)
I'd never ask who was better
'Cause she couldn't be
More different from me
Happy and free in leather

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know that you love me (You love me)
You don't need to remind me (Remind me)
Put it all behind me
But, baby

[Chorus]
I see her in the back of my mind (Back of my mind)
All the time (All the time)
Feels like a fever (Like a fever)
Like I’m burnin’ alive (Burnin' alive) by her side
Did I cross the line? (Cross the line), oh

[Post-Chorus]
You say no one knows you so well
But every time you touch me, I just wonder I should feel
Valentines Day cryin’ in the hotel
I know you didn't mean to hurt me, so I kept it to myself

[Outro]
And I wonder
Do you see her in the back of your mind?
In my eyes
You say no one knows you so well
But every time you touch me, I just wonder I should feel
Valentines Day cryin' in the hotel
I know you didn't mean to hurt me, so I kept it to myself
