Lyrics Highway Roses - The Shadowboxers

Highway Roses

I don’t wanna wait another minute
For the bottom to fall out
I’m tired of the way
I’m taking things for granted with you (Ah, yeah)
Love should feel like sweat in the summer
On a dark grey t-shirt (Yeah)
It’s all about the work
That I have been pretending to do (Ah, yeah)
This could go on and on and on
We both know it’s wrong, it’s wrong
But here I am on Aisle 2
Hoping I can find somebody’s words for you
Baby, this can’t be love
If we’re always giving up
I’m tired of showing up
With highway roses
Baby, this can’t be love
That’s a feeling we’ve been dreaming of
I’m tired of showing up
With highway roses (Highway roses)
I can’t shake the feeling
Like you’ve always just remembered to love me
Like I am just the gum
You’re grabbing in the checkout line (Ah, yeah)
So, I don’t wanna take another minute
For what this won’t be
'Cause if it’s gonna end
We might as well start saying goodbye
(Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
Time comes in gets comfortable
Years go by before you know
Quick to say apologies I accept too easily
Call to say you’re running late
Throw some take-out on the plate
I don’t even try to wait for you
Baby, this can’t be love
If we’re always giving up
I’m tired of showing up
With highway roses
Baby, this can’t be love
That’s a feeling we’ve been dreaming of
I’m tired of showing up
With highway roses
Highway roses (Oh, baby)
Highway roses (Oh, baby)
Highway roses
Highway roses (Highway roses)
I wanna know (Highway roses)
If this road we’re on (Highway roses)
Will keep us hanging on (Highway roses)
'Til we break through (Highway roses)
And I wanna know (Highway roses)
If this road we’re on (Highway roses)
Will keep us hanging on (Highway roses)
'Til we break through (Highway roses)
Baby, this can’t be love
If we’re always giving up
I’m tired of showing up
With highway roses
