Roses in the Rain
I will give you roses in the rain
i will give you my old tap shoes to dance away the pain
i will give you all i have today
if you sit right down right here now mama and promise not to go away
i’ll believe you, even if they say you lied
i’ll believe you, even if it means that i
might go to jail for harboring a fugitive
in the light of your criminal love
that’s where i want to live
tie me down to the tracks
before you leave and you never come back, again
i won’t give you questions to the answers of your life
but i’ll forgive you, if you stumble home drunk in the morning light
i’d rather believe you,
even if it means that i am alone in my decision
oh my love is devoid of precision
i will give you a ring around your pretty finger
i’ll try to give you some room to dream and room to linger
i’d rather die broke and happy
all of this junk we bought
is bound to be the death of you and the death of me
it’s bound to be the death of me
i will give you what’s in my heart and in my brain
i’ll try to give you a forum in which to complain
after we’re dead and gone and no one knows our names
i will give you roses in the rain
