Rosas

Roses
On a day like this
when I usually think
"today's gonna be the day I least expect"
We crossed paths
and you decided to look
into those blue eyes
that are now by your side
From the moment
I met you
Rushing through
silent time
I swear to you
I haven't told anyone
that we hold the record
in the world for loving each other
That's why I was waiting
with my face all wet
for you to show up with roses
with a thousand roses for me
'Cause you know
I love that kind of stuff
It doesn't matter
if it's really silly
that's just me.
And it still feels unreal
that my life is slipping away
imagining you come back
and stop by here
where Fridays
every afternoon
like always
hope says
"stay still, maybe today"
Escaping one night
from a yawn of sun
You asked me for a kiss.
With how cheap
my love is,
what does it cost you
to silence me
with one of those.
Six months went by
and you said goodbye
it was a pleasure to meet
in this life.
There I stayed
with my heart in one hand
and excuses in the other
that even you didn't understand.
That's why I was waiting
with my face all wet
for you to show up with roses
with a thousand roses for me
'Cause you know
I love that kind of stuff
It doesn't matter
if it's really silly
that's just me.
And it still feels unreal
that my life is slipping away
imagining you come back
and stop by here
where Fridays
every afternoon
like always
hope says
"stay still, maybe today"
And I'm starting
to think
that true love
is just the first one.
And I'm starting
to suspect
that the others
are just to forget
That's why I was waiting
with my face all wet
for you to show up with roses
with a thousand roses for me
'Cause you know
I love that kind of stuff
It doesn't matter
if it's really silly
that's just me.
And it still feels unreal
that my life is slipping away
imagining you come back
and stop by here,
where Fridays every afternoon
like always
hope says
"stay still, maybe today"
