Rosebud - Sparks

Oh pretty baby

You look helpless

There is beauty in pain

Help is coming

So don’t you worry

Don’t even try to explain

The sirens blaring

The look of panic

These are the signs of a dream

Cry pretty baby

You’ll feel better

I’m trying hard not to scream

What will your mother say

What will your father say

What will the angels say

As they hide in disgrace

From your beautiful face

Hush my darling

There’s tomorrow

We’ll be laughing again

We’ll buy a camera

We’ll take vacations

Try not to move if you can

Without a warning

Without a reason

There wasn’t even a scream

Don’t call it tragic

That gives it meaning

I’m trying hard not to scream

What will your mother say

What will your father say

What will the angels say

As they hide in disgrace

From your beautiful face

What will your mother say

What will your father say

What will the angels say

As they hide in disgrace

From your beautiful face

A tiny diamond

Lies out on Main Street

That’s all that’s left of our love

Without your loving

My life is nothing

How can I ever go on

What will your mother say

What will your father say

What will the angels say

As they hide in disgrace

From your beautiful face

What will your mother say

What will your father say

What will the angels say

As they hide in disgrace

From your beautiful face

In a movie a life can be summed up in a word

It’s a useful, dramatic device

In the real world, with real flesh and real blood

One word is never, ever enough
