Paloma Faith — Romance Is Dead lyrics

Lyrics

The plastic flowers you gave
Sit on the table so unstable
And there’s some greasy fingerprints
On that pre-wrote birthday card
You wrote your name in And I know that you make your effort
But I think you could do much better
A rose is blue and violets red
Say it isn’t true, don’t tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
All your dreams are just a kiss away
I ask you for a letter
So you emailed, have we failed?
Oh, you kiss with such a potential
Then ask to speed up, it’s not enough
Now I’m carrying my own bags up 17 flights of stairs love
A rose is blue and violets red
Say it isn’t true, don’t tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are just a kiss away
It shouldn’t take valentine day
Just to show you love me You don’t need any money
Just a bit of imagination
A rose is blue and violets red
Say it isn’t true, don’t tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are just a kiss away
A rose is blue and violets red
Say it isn’t true, don’t tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are
A rose is blue and violets red
Say it isn’t true, don’t tell me romance is dead
So wake up, you sleepy head
Think of all the magic we could make
All your dreams are just a kiss away
