I Never Promised you a Rose Garden — текст песни (The Suicide Machines)

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
there`s gotta be a little rain sometime


When you take you gotta give
so live and let live
and let go oh oh oh oh
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden


I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don`t find roses growin` on stalks of clover
So you better think it over


Well, if sweet talking you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter


But what would it matter


So smile for a while and let`s be jolly
love shouldn`t be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can


I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
there`s gotta be a little rain sometime


I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden


I could sing you a tune
and promise you the moon
But if that`s what it takes to hold you
I`d just as soon let you go
But there`s one thing I want you to know


You`d better look before you leap
still waters run deep
And there won`t always be someone there to pull you out


And you know what I`m talking about


So smile for a while and let`s be jolly
love shouldn`t be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can


I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
there`s gotta be a little rain sometime.....
