Buy You a Rose Lyrics by AJR

6foot1 - EP

2014

[Verse 1]
I been out walking
By the shore
The air was still
And still the water cold
And I want you to know
I'm thinking of you
[Verse 2]
This kind of chill
It helps me cope
I was so young to leave you all alone
And I want you to know
I'm thinking of you, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
All the pretty girls, they found
The way to keep you on my mind
I swear I heard you singing along
Cities pass like kidney stones
And you're the one I'm looking for
It's so wrong, mm-hmm
I didn't know 'til you were gone
[Chorus]
Tell me, my love, you ready to go?
Don't leave me all on my own, and so
I'm just a boy who's telling a girl
That when I grow up I'll buy you a rose
When I grow up I'll buy you a rose
[Verse 3]
And now I'm walking in the rain
I couldn't laugh 'cause I was so afraid
And I want you to say
You're thinking of me
[Pre-Chorus]
All the pretty girls, they found
The way to keep you on my mind
I swear I heard you singing along
Cities pass like kidney stones
And you're the one I'm looking for
It's so wrong, mm-hmm
I didn't know 'til you were gone
[Chorus]
Tell me, my love, you ready to go?
Don't leave me all on my own, and so
I'm just a boy who's telling a girl
That when I grow up I'll buy you a rose
When I grow up I'll buy you a rose
[Bridge]
Baby, tell me that you love me so
Can you let me know?
Can you hold me close?
(Hold me close)
Baby, tell me you'll forgive me now
'Cause I don't know how I can let you down
Hey, Hey, Hey
[Chorus]
Tell me, my love, you ready to go?
Don't leave me all on my own
And so
I'm just a boy who's telling a girl
That when I grow up I'll buy you a rose
(I'm gonna buy you a rose, yeah)
Tell me, my love, you ready to go?
Don't leave me all on my own
And so
I'm just a boy who's telling a girl
That when I grow up I'll buy you a rose
(I'm gonna buy you a rose, yeah)
[Outro]
When I grow up I'll buy you a rose
Yeah when I grow up I'll buy you a rose
