lyrics

every morning I wake up
to see another petal's dropped
from the bouquet that you game me
made of invasive species

are you a permanent rose?
made of paper and bows
god only knows
what I would do for you

if you stay I have my fears
if you leave there will be tears
but I will love you
as long as you're here

invitation's already in the mail
another songbird's gone to jail
sitting on the floor beside myself
worrying about my health

am I a permanent rose?
the kind that never grows
god only knows
what I go through for you...

if we make it through the years
we can transcend all the tears
so I will love you as long as you're here
