A Rose Is Still a Rose Lyrics


Doo doo doo
Doo doo doo
Doo doo dooThere was a rose I knew
I met her once or twice before
She was a pretty sweet thing
Not the least bit insecureThen you came with your slick game
And played with her youth
Unashamed of the way you lied
Played with the truth, hey heyMmm, she never knew what hit her, yeah
Steal her honey, then forget her
A rose, she wears a flower
Tryin' to forget about youCause a rose is still a rose
Baby girl, you're still a flower
He can't lead you and then take you
Make you and then break you
Darlin', you hold the powerNow believe me when I tell you
That I've been hurt myself
When he tells you that he loves you

And sees nobody elseAnd now you're so tough tryin' to
Wear tight clothes and things
Tossin' and flossin'
Tryin' to fill the void heartbreak bringsOh yeah, when she faces the mirror, yeah
She's cryin', you can't hear her
Now the rose is still a rose
She wears a flower, tryin' to forget about youCause a rose is still a rose
Baby girl, you're still a flower
He can't lead you and then take you
Make you and then break you
Baby girl, you hold the powerSee a rose is still a rose
Baby girl, you're still a flower
He can't lead you and then take you
Make you and then break you
Darlin', you hold the powerLet your life be in the sunshine
Not the darkness of your sorrow
You may see you're all today
When you know it'll come tomorrowTough to be, but life ain't over
Just because your man is gone
Girl, love yourself and love to love
Cause without him your life goes onWithout him your life goes on
Without him your life goes onCause a rose is still a rose
Baby girl, you're still a flower
He can't lead you and then take you
Make you and then break you
Baby girl, you hold the powerSee a rose is still a rose
Baby girl, you're still a flower
He can't lead you and then take you
Make you and then break you
Darlin', you hold the power
