Susan Ashton - A Rose Is A Rose lyrics

rate me

They say you're a fool they feel you resisting<br />

They tell you you'll never go very far<br />

But they'll be the same ones that stand in the distance<br />

And fall in the shadow of your shining star.<br />

<br />

Just keep on the same road and keep on your toes<br />

Just keep your heart steady as she goes<br />

And let them call you what they will<br />

It don't matter a rose by any name is still a rose.<br />

<br />

The kindess of strangers it seems like a fable<br />

But they get to seek what I see<br />

That you can make it if you are able<br />

To believe in yourself the way I do.<br />

<br />

Just keep on the same road and keep on your toes<br />

Just keep your heart steady as she goes<br />

And let them call you what they will<br />

It don't matter a rose by any name is still a rose.<br />

<br />

'Cause a deal is a deal in the heart of the dream<br />

And a spade is a spade if you know what I mean<br />

A rose is a rose is a rose.<br />

<br />

Deal with the scoffers is part of the bargain<br />

They heckle from backrows and they bark at the moon<br />

The flowers are fading in times bitter garden<br />

But yours is only beginning to bloom.<br />

<br />

Just keep on the same road and keep on your toes<br />

Just keep your heart steady as she goes<br />

And let them call you what they will<br />

And just remember a rose by any name is still a rose.<br />

<br />

A rose by any name is still a rose...</
