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 those 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 Nice
