240222: Roses Are Red

from Leap Songs, Part 4 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

Roses are red the rest is all blue
Are you leaving me or am I leaving you
Just 'cause you say it don't make it true

Roses are red except when they're not
Sometimes a memory is all that I got
Bright golden daydreams can't make them stop

If you put the color into my world
What can I do when it all starts to blur
The paint is all bleeding thorns hit a nerve
Roses are red especially yours

Roses are red not black or white
Love may be blind but what's right is right
The heart doesn't lie or change overnight
