Stephin Merritt - I'm Sorry I Love You lyrics

A single rose in your garden dwells Like any rose it's not itself It is my love in your garden grows But let's pretend it's just a rose [Chorus] Well, I'm sorry that I love you It's a phase I'm going through There is nothing that I can do And I'm sorry that I love you Do not listen to my song Don't remember it, don't sing along Let's pretend it's a work of art Let's pretend it's not my heart [Chorus] The rose will fade when summer's gone The song will fade and I'll be gone Because my heart is dying too And it's all the same to you [Chorus] [Repeat 2x]
