Long Stemmed Roses-Natalie Gelman
Long stemmed roses in June
High atop a lover’s day pressed against the man on the moon
And I feel entirely out of my shoes
In love with you
Quiet winds blowing round
Outside of these walls taking every old leaf to the ground
And I haven’t got another single care in the world
But holding on to you
We turn under the sky in the dead of the night
You start to drift away, I hold on tight
Are we happy? I suppose
But really, who the hell knows
Love stays… but happiness comes and goes
Are we happy, are we not?
Is this a little, is this a lot?
What it is… is the way our love grows
Like a long-stemmed rose
All the words, never said
Whispers in the dark please make love to me instead
You make the coffee, I roll out of bed
In love with you
We were taken apart, we were stretched by the seems
So we took what we could and we remade our dreams
Are we happy? I suppose
But really, who the hell knows
Love stays… but happiness comes and goes
Are we happy, are we not?
Is this a little, is this a lot?
What it is… is the way our love grows
Like a long-stemmed rose
Are we happy? I suppose
But really, who the hell knows
Love stays… but happiness comes and goes
Are we happy, are we not?
Is this a little, is this a lot?
What it is… is the way our love grows
Like a long-stemmed rose
