She said, "I want a real rose" Colors and everyone knows The dust kicked up from your shoes Floats like angelical moons Silhouettes in the corners of your mind Sublime like the cracks of your smile Pray that I'll keep you covered Collapse the trees that shudder Bleach the color from your clothes Believe your lover cos she knows Bleed the blood from your bones A two-tone baby, stealing love from a stone Oh, stone, grave for the time spent alone Oh, stone, brave for the time spent alone I've waited for you to wander To justify your needs to squander You claimed me like a trophy Distracted ever so slowly I'll make it up to you one day I promise I won't wish it away The island that we live on Crumbled like lost devotion Bleach the color from your clothes Believe your lover cos she knows Bleed the blood from your bones A two-tone baby, stealing love from a stone Oh, stone, grave for the time spent alone Oh, stone, brave for the time spent alone Do you love her skin? So frail you'll never make it divine Fooling around And this is for life, this is for life Summer skin So pale there's a speck in your eyes Splitting light This is for life, this is for life Life Oh, stone, grave for the time spent alone Oh, stone, brave for the time spent alone
