Blue Roses - I Wish I... lyrics

rate me

I called you and got what I deserved

Heard that laughing in your words

I wish that I could photograph my moods

Show them to you

Just to prove

Something

Down in the town I'm trying to prove something

But the clock hands won't move

So I'll go on singing about the same thing

And reading myself into books

The roadside buildings are black-eyed and aged

They can't see me anymore

How would I mean anything to anything

Now I am not the hues in your city square puddles?

But when he touched my hand like it was gold

I want to pull away and say

'Look, it's only...

It's only made from plain old skin and bone

Don't try to give me credit you don't owe me! '

You've got your eye on the door

This is what my life is for now

I'll pray the you won't drop your anchor here

We'll share our anecdotes saved from last time we spoke

We'll never change

Let's go out for a drive in your car

We don't have to go that far

Let's try to find a road that we don't know

'Till we don't know where we are

And I can smell the bonfires in the street

I want to say that I love you... love you

But you've got your eye on the door

This is what my life is for now

I'll pray that you won't drop your anchor here

We'll share out anecdotes saved from last time we spoke

We'll never change
