If you could stand
Behind
My eyes for just one day
Could you see
My heart
Beside you?
If you knew
My love
Had never flown away
Would I be missing you
Wouldn't that be roses
Wouldn't that be fine
If I could wash away
All these years with language
Could this naked love
Survive the light of day
If I could be the one
Who walked away
Would you be missing me
Wouldn't that be roses
Wouldn't that be fine?
I saw the weather change
High up on the cap rock
It is my sense of place
You were my holiday
If you could hold
Me now
And brace these broken shoulders
Wouldn't that be trust
Wouldn't that be roses
Wouldn't that be fine?
If I could turn
Your head
With the round of my pen
Leaving all
We've said
Behind us
If I could roll
These dice
And finally loose my anger
Wouldn't that be love
Wouldn't that be roses
Wouldn't that be fine?
Wouldn't that be love
Wouldn't that be roses
Wouldn't that be fine?
