Roses Lyrics

by Luke Christopher

If there was ever such a clever breed of roses
That the red is in the air from the bosom of the chicken scarlet letter
I would toss it to the dirt and would appreciate it better
I would toss another but upon hearin' the word whatever
It's your favorite, I know it cuz you've said it enough
You was in it to uh but came out of in love
It's a gift from above, it's the curse that a dove
Fall in love and you could follow into something that's rough
But say, I got a nack about being too into the world around
That's probly why you never trust me when there's girls around me
You know, I never lift a finger like paralysis
I swear that incident happened cuz I was out of it
I swear, I swear you said these ones is as always
And at the time we existed, live far away
Been tryna work it out but patients is wrong
If you ever get some roses better check ‘em for thorns and say

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e97519-luke_christopher~roses_lyrics.html ]
You said we were on the train to have fun
I guess you never saw it that way
Oh the flowers I gave you and the love cuz I raise you
I will never give you roses again

Remember the time that were sittin' by the lake, hmm?
We were talkin' ‘bout other mistakes I've made, hmm
That other shit those broads were talkin' ‘bout was fake hmm
And every apology that I gave, you wouldn't take, hmm
Is it my fault that you were used to dating rappers?
And is my only gift to you a little laughter?
What about that glass slip of happy ever after
Well, you walked all over me, you was surprised the glass shattered
Shoulda known that I would chop it now huh princess?
And fuck your tea pots, get the twin sets
Fuckin' wind chime when the fuckin' wind hits
And fuck that pillow that you ordered that ain't in yet
Could give a damn about your new school buggy
Everybody know that old school better, honey bunny
So let this be my last bouquet
I'll be hopin' in the game, I got a field to play and say

You said we were on the train to have fun
I guess you never saw it that way
Oh the flowers I gave you and the love cuz I raise you
I will never give you roses again
