the roses - 3 inquiries (famous last words) lyrics

our good friend
of faith and fortune
believes in life
very much indeed

where is somewhere?
is it where we so often speak of?
is it the place where
we were so often in love?

she said, “i’ll be impressed when i spot inconsistencies clearer”
i said, “you should invest in a much more conspicuous mirror”
then we came to an agreement
it was that we lacked the means to wage a war
then i finally saw what she meant
she claimed that i wasn’t worth the fighting for
patton was an upright man, doing everything he can
to save the yankees from the place where all eternal souls go to be d-mned
like the nazis and the kgb
and that’s where she’ll be!

(where are you, love?)

what is something?
is it what i know we both covet?
is it that one thing?
cause i know you and i both love it

she said, “we’ll make amends because yours is the heaviest treasure”
i said, “dear, it depends on the instrument with which you measure”
then she called me so egregious, and said our spring-born love won’t see another day
then i called her quite contagious, seeing as i’ve been an imbecile since may
the issue only arose, when she questioned my repose
then i recalled the purple sky under which i proposed
that love is but a dying rose
and that’s what she is

who is someone?
is it she has who has been through it all?
yes is it my loved one
or is it she who will leave come rainfall?

despite doubts and fears that this might be a mighty endeavor
i hope through the years that i’ll stand as your standard forever
if you think that life’s a theater, and everyone’s an actor for to cheer
i trust that once you meet her, you’ll realize she’s less insightful than king lear
if you’re looking from afar, you will see a sight bizarre
as i’m dying i’ll be trying to destroy my guitar
in the hope that you’ll spar
and say, “because of her, you’re no longer who you are!”
