Gypsy Rose Lyrics
Oh, gypsy rose
I will wait for your sun to shine
Now you've got me goin'
Somewhere no one could findAll in my life
It's the world that makes me cryOh, summer day
Go back home, give your body away
Milky arms and legs
Wrap around this neglected frameAnd the world will make you cry
Yeah, the world won't tell you why
But this world won't make you die
'Cause I loved you rightOh, gypsy rose
You got me swallowed up in your streets
Bring your food, money, shoes
Just to lie here with you beneath your sheetsI see hope in your eyes
It's the world that makes you cryRose, I got no friends
I got no kids and I don't got kin
My one salvation
Is the warmth of your skinAnd this world will make you cry
Yeah, the world will make you lie
Oh, the world will suck you dry
Oh, but I love you rightOh, summer day
Go back home, give your body away
And when I wake
You'll have saved my life
