Verse 1 I heard you bring her flowers Just because it’s Tuesday Make the reservations Before she has to say You call when you’ll be late now You listen when she speaks Funny how you finally learned The little things mean everything I remember asking For half of what you give Trying not to sound ungrateful For the little that I’d get And girl, this ain’t about you You ain’t take nothing from me I just recognize the flowers ’Cause I taught him what they mean ⸻ Pre-Chorus I told him Love ain’t something You should have to chase Told him Sorry means nothing If nothing ever changes Guess every conversation Finally got through Just wish the man Who heard me Had shown up When I was with him too ⸻ Chorus Welcome You got what I had Welcome I was first, you’re the last Welcome I showed him how to love Now you’re getting Everything I deserved Welcome Hope he gets it right Welcome Hope you never fight For the things I had to beg him for I was living off the crumbs Now you’re getting the cake Welcome ⸻ Verse 2 He probably knows your coffee And how you take your space Probably lets you finish talking Without turning it into blame Bet he says he’s proud of you Without you asking first And when he makes a promise You don’t have to wonder If he’ll keep his word I used to write him paragraphs Explaining how I hurt Thinking if I found The perfect words He’d finally see my worth Now I know He understood me That’s the part That hurts the worst He just wasn’t ready To become that man When I was there ⸻ Pre-Chorus I told him Love shouldn’t leave you Questioning your place Told him You can’t keep hurting someone Then call their healing grace Guess every tear I cried Taught him something new And now I’m watching Everything I asked for Come To you ⸻ Chorus Welcome You got what I had Welcome I was first, you’re the last Welcome I showed him how to love Now you’re getting Everything I deserved Welcome Hope he gets it right Welcome Hope you never fight For the things I had to beg him for I was living off the crumbs Now you’re getting the cake Welcome ⸻ Bridge For a while I hated knowing Somebody else Would get the man I kept believing You could be Like I spent all those years Building a home Just to hand somebody else The key But you don’t owe me For the lessons And I don’t blame you For being loved I hope you never have to break To teach him What should’ve been enough I paid for every lesson Baby… You deserve The learned version So did I. ⸻ Final Chorus Welcome You got what I had Welcome But I hope yours finally lasts Welcome I showed him how to love Now you’re getting Everything I deserved Welcome Hope he holds you right Welcome Hope you never lose yourself Trying to make him See your worth You should never live on crumbs When you deserve The whole damn cake So welcome Take the flowers Take the effort Take the man I asked him to become I don’t want him back I just needed To admit… I deserved That version too ⸻ Outro So welcome… No hard feelings. Just make sure He keeps bringing you Those flowers. I taught him That part.
