Petals Lyrics by Janet Mona

2021

[Verse 1:]
I am so confused
How’d you get here?
Where’d you come from?
How’d you end up in my room?
We were playing
Newly single
I just thought that you were cute
And I knew and I knew and I knew
We couldn’t be friends
But I kept thinking to myself
“Don’t want this to end”

[Pre-Chorus:]
Tried to train my mind
Tried to keep the crazy in
Lookin real fine
Til you find out what’s within
Got anxiety for miles and miles
I think you think it’s worth your while
I’m mental, but I’m sweet
Can’t buy my love for cheap

[Chorus:]
Catch me picking petals off of all my flowers
Dreaming of your kisses, holding me for hours
And I know, it’s been like two dates
Wishin it was year eight
Really hope this lasts
Am I moving too fast?

(Like the beat of my heart)
Boom boom, boom boom
(Like the beat of my heart)
Am I moving too fast, hey
(Like the beat of my heart)
Boom boom, boom boom
(Like the beat of my heart)
Am I moving too fast, baby

[Verse 2:]
I’m losing my self control
Everything’s gone to shit
I don’t who I am
Anymore
But I promise
It’s worth it all
I look at you for a minute
You make my heart hit the floor

[Pre-Chorus:]
Tried to train my mind
Tried to keep the crazy in
Lookin real fine
Til you find out what’s within
Got anxiety for miles and miles
I think you think it’s worth your while
I’m mental, but I’m sweet
Can’t buy my love for cheap

[Chorus:]
Catch me picking petals off of all my flowers
Dreaming of your kisses, holding me for hours
And I know, it’s been like two dates
Wishin it was year eight
Really hope this lasts
Am I moving too fast?

(Like the beat of my heart)
Boom boom, boom boom
(Like the beat of my heart)
Am I moving too fast, hey
(Like the beat of my heart)
Boom boom, boom boom
(Like the beat of my heart)
Am I moving too fast, baby

[Outro:]

“I’ve been in love several times before, I guess, so I could recognize the symptoms.”

“Several times?”

“Mhm! And each time I thought I’d found my Prince Charming. Most people fall in love quite a few times in their lives.”

“Well, then, how can you tell when you’re really in love?”

“Well…your capacity for love grows and develops, just as you grow and develop.”

“How can you tell when love is mature?”

“Well, mature love is more…settled. Mature love has something of the other kind of love in it, and something more. It’s tender, unselfish, cooperative.”

“I want to have that kind of love."
