I've been confusin'
Love and illusion
I don't believe
I've ever really known the thing
I've been treatin'
My heart like it's eatin'
Up my life
With every single day
I know that Roses are always in season
There's always a reason for someone to need a rose
Am I foolish for believing
That every rose ain't always on the run
I'm a distraction
You're a reaction
From thing things
That we can't bear to say
There ain't no reason
To be cheatin'
Unless you want
To throw your love away
I can't believe it
Or bear it any reason
It's the only way
I can take my mind off things
I know that Roses are always in season
There's always a reason for someone to need a rose
Am I foolish for believing
That every rose ain't always on the run
I miss your reaction
The satisfaction
Of doing wrong
But loving you so right
I can't believe it
Or call it treason
Turns out love
Ain't always in the right
I know that Roses are always in season
There's always a reason for someone to need a rose
Am I foolish for believing
That every rose ain't always on the run
