The rose

Tell me why I cannot be someone ordinary

someone with some ordinary thoughts for a start?

I cannot organise my thoughts

- I think I get worried too easily

but no, it's just this mania of being a dreamer!

 

I don't expect you to comprehend but tell me

why I can't even pretend I am an ordinary girl.

I'm tired of being the only one in the world

that seems to care about simple things - like a rose.

 

I cannot control  my thoughts

they just slip away from me

my colleagues just decided I am mad

because I cannot engage a simple conversation

because life as it happens just bother me.

 

I'm tired of being the only one in the world

that seems to care about simple things - like a rose.

 

'Cause everyone just walk too fast for me

and I am the only one that stopped to see

the rose laying on the sidewalk

and I picked it up and brought it with me

as a broken souvenir.

That's what I meant to say when I tell

that I'm tired of being the only one

that seems to care about simple things - like a rose.
