hey rose

There’s a big brass band in the park today

Those low notes speak what my mouth can’t say

Can I read your every letter? Turn your every page?

Can I hold you till these dark dreams fade?

Hey Rose

Your soul is the picture

But your body is the frame

But the frame is exquisite

And you taste just like your name

I’ll steer these wheels on down the road

All night from New York to Ohio

Can I drive to california? Fly you over spain?

Can I take you to the place where the dolphins play?

Hey Rose

(See me clearly)

Hey baby

(Baby can you hear me)

Can you hear me darling?

(Hey life saver)

Can you see it baby?

(One more favor)

Do us both a favor

(Stay)

Stay while I rebuild the world on paper, Rose

Your soul is the picture

But your body is the frame

But the frame is exquisite

And you taste just like your name

We’ll talk touch tones no telephones

I reach the front door, nobody’s home

Can I listen to your heartbeat? Hear your every moan ?

Can I stay right here in your garden love?

Hey Rose

Your soul is the picture

But your body is the frame

But the frame is exquisite

And you taste just like your name

Hey Rose

Your soul is the picture

But your body is the frame

But the frame is exquisite

And you taste just like your name

Hey Rose

Your soul is the picture

But your body is the frame

But the frame is exquisite

And you taste just like your name

There’s a big brass band in the park today

Those low notes speak what my mouth can’t say

I indulge your every pleasure, engaged in lovers games

Can I hold you till these dark dreams fade?
