dozen roses (live) Lyrics

There's a man across the street

Wears collared shirts

Loves whiskey neat after dinner

He's got emerald eyes that shine

Just bright enough to dull the ring on his finger

I was meant to steal his heart

I can see us in the stars as clear as day

There's just a couple little things that are annoyingly getting in the way

And my mama always told me

All is fair in love, and I should

Never be afraid to fight and

Shed a little blood, cause he's my

Medicine, my everything

My angel from above, the

Only reason why I've done

The things I've done

I mailed a dozen roses

To my future husband

Humming to the music

Hearing his wife cry

She'll curse at us from hell

As I'm unbuckling his belt

I watch him through the window

Hand between my thighs

He knows he has my heart

If he forgets, I've carved

Our initials in his front door

With my kitchen knife

I'm counting down the days

Til the ugly voices fade

Such a picture perfect family

Baby you and I

I don't know how you ever chose her

It's clear she doesn't know you like I do

She's a liability

The villain in

Our love story

Baby you know it's true

I see the sweat run down your cheek

So out of breath,

I know you're thinking of me

And I'll do everything I can

To keep you close

Make us a beautiful reality

And I'm trying to save you from

Something that you don't wanna keep

I listen quiet in the confessional

As you're talking in your sleep

I believe that at the end of it

Our true love will prevail

I know that once I slay the dragon

He'll be grateful that I

I mailed a dozen roses

To my future husband

Humming to the music

Hearing his wife cry

She'll curse at us from hell

As I'm unbuckling his belt

I watch him through the window

Hand between my thighs

He knows he has my heart

If he forgets, I've carved

Our initials in his front door

With my kitchen knife

I'm counting down the days

Til the ugly voices fade

Such a picture perfect family

Baby you and I

And I'm sharpening my kitchen knife

The judgement day has come

We'll leave those siren songs behind

While we're in love and on the run

But god forbid you make the wrong choice

No matter what you'll see

That someone will be sorry and you know it won't be me

I mailed a dozen roses

To my future husband

Humming to the music

Hearing his wife cry

She'll curse at us from hell

As I'm unbuckling his belt

I watch him through the window

Hand between my

He knows he has my heart

If he forgets, I've carved

Our initials in his front door

With my kitchen knife

I'm counting down the days

Til the ugly voices fade

Such a picture perfect family, oh

Baby you and I

Oh, I need you baby, I

Oh, I need you baby, I

Oh, I need you baby

Baby, you and I
