Smell The Rose Lyrics

On the first time that we met you just stared at me and smiled

Laughing as you fixed my hair you said it was a little wild

Sat beneath the purple sky and we sang song after song

We had no idea of whats to come, now its been so long

So long since we first held hands, so long since we fell apart

So long since the day we cried tears of joy in our heart

Now we travel this shattered world walking side by side

I miss the days of youthfulness I miss exciting rides

Well if I could return

To where we once ran free, had a little money to burn

Well I hope that you'll come too

We can take it slow and smell the rose, and watch the world turn

Well the life we're living now, it's different in this world

It's aired on the side of caution for the safety of our girl

I wish I could take us back, to when we once were young

Back to when we had more time to make it on the run

Well if I could return

To where we once ran free, had a little money to burn

Well I hope that you'll come too

We can take it slow and smell the rose, and watch the world turn

Our favorite trip was to the zoo, early picnics in the fall

We'll take a hike to the top and listen to the stars call

I promise you if we return, you'll never hear me whine

All I want is to run with you with your hand in mine

Well if I could return

To where we once ran free, had a little money to burn

Well I hope that you'll come too

We can take it slow and smell the rose, and watch the world turn

We can take it slow and smell the rose, and watch the world turn
