Romance Is Dead

(album: Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful? - 2009)

The plastic flowers you gave
Sit on the table
So unstable
And there are some greasy finger prints
On that pre-wrote birthday card you wrote your name in
And I know that you make your effort
But I think you could do much better

Are roses blue and violets red?
Say it isn't true
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
All your dreams are just a kiss away

I ask you for a letter
So you e-mailed
Have we failed?
Oh, you kiss with such a potential, then ask to speed up
It's not enough
Now I'm carrying my own bags up
17 flights of stairs, love

Are roses blue and violets red?
Say it isn't true
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are just a kiss away

It shouldn't take Valentine's Day just to show you love me
You don't need any money, just a vivid imagination

Are roses blue and violets red?
Say it isn't true
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up your sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are just a kiss away

Are roses blue and violets red?
Say it isn't true
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are just a kiss away!

Are roses blue and violets red?
Say it isn't true
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams

Are roses blue and violets red?
Say it isn't true
Don't tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are just a kiss away!
