Romance Is Dead Lyrics

Paloma Faith

The plastic flowers you gave
sit on the table so unstable
And there's some greasy fingerprints
on that pre-wrote birthday card
you wrote your name in
And i know that you make your effot
but i think you could do much better

A rose is 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 emailed,have we failed?
oh you kiss with such a potential
then ask to speed up its not enough
Now i'm carrying my own bags up
17 flights of stairs love

A rose is 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 day
just to show you love me
You don't need any money
just a bit of imagination

A rose is 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

A rose is 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...

A rose is 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
