Artist: Natasha Bedingfield
Song: Smell The Roses

I've been livin' in a room without windows
Away from the sun, no oxygen
I couldn't tell if it was day or night
Away form the sun, growing nowhere fast

Rushin' along on the pavement
Don't even look at the people's faces, goin places

When an old man said stop
You nearly stepped on a flower
Growing through the cracks
And you didn't even notice

Wake up smell the roses
Life is happenin' and you don't know it
Wake up, take a moment
Grab it your hands and own it.

I realised our love is like that flower
Been neglecting the thing most precious to me
You've been talkin' but I haven't been listenin'
The static and the noise been drownin' you out
I so wanna be in the future
That I keep trippin over my own shoe laces
In these human races
And I'm brought back to now, 
And the volume goes down
There's peace in his words as loud as a shout sayin'

(Chorus)

He says

(Chorus)

Like your birthday I forgot, 
I was with you
But I was not really there
Snap your fingers, that's your life
Not gonna let it pass me by no,

When an old man said stop
You nearly stepped on a flower
Growing through the cracks
And you didn't even notice

(Chorus x2)
