Roses on the Ocean

Lyrics

Roses On The Ocean (c) 2007 Sarah Fridrich, ASCAP from the starboard of the ships the men waved goodbye i never understood but he had his orders with red hot lips of desperate romancing with girls at their hips the boys will be dancing we're gonna cilng to their shoulders we're gonna cry 'til dawn this night could be endless if it weren't for the rising sun my man put roses on the ocean and then he just packed up to leave i've cried for the last time i'm gonna put my heart to sleep the mothers of the land gave me women's liberation took the brooms for our hands and gave us driving ambition but as hard as they worked they must have left something out cause this love sick heart i can't do nothin' about my man put roses on the ocean and then he just packed up to leave i've cried for the last time i'm gonna put my heart to sleep in the hours that we meet we try to talk about love make expressions complete but there's never words enough now i'm sittin' at the table with my hands to my face he's at the door and i've got nothin' to say my man put roses on the ocean and then he just packed up to leave i've cried for the last time gonna put my heart to sleep
