Baby's Breath
Baby’s Breath
Performed by The Pretenders
(Steinberg/Kelly/Hynde)
There was a time you thought I was in love with you
Well, think again, you can’t read my thoughts
You’re so pretty, I’d like to break your smile in two
You’re so correct I’d like to disconnect the dots
You’re such a child, but you’re not innocent
Another kid for rent
CHORUS:
Why did you send me roses?
Save them for someone’s death
The love you have to offer
Is only baby’s breath
There was a time I thought you were magnificent
But you have nothing to have or to hold
You’re so pensive but your thoughts are insignificant
Wrap ‘em up another 20 billion sold
You think you’re wild and know what danger means
In your designer jeans
REPEAT CHORUS
I want to take you alone tonight and rearrange your mind
I’d love to have you but I know I’d be wasting my time
CHORUS:
Why did you send me roses?
Save them for someone’s death
The love you have to offer
Is only baby’s breath
Why did you send me roses?
Just save them for someone’s death
When every petal closes
You’re only baby’s breath
