Verse 1:
Life sure is taking its time,
And everyone’s moving past mine,
And this ain’t a race,
But man- I ain’t winning,
But when I look at her face,
My mother keeps me from quitting,
Chorus:
And she says don’t you worry,
Everything’s coming up roses,
The day that you go plant them,
Ain’t the day that they bloom,
And you know better than I-
‘Bout the dreams that you have chosen,
But one thing stays consistent,
If you’re patient it’s soon,
(Break)
Verse 2:
And I try to see through my mother’s eyes,
Keeping a tab on the brighter side,
And this ain’t a race,
And man, no one’s winning,
But if I keep at this pace,
And just keep on swinging-
Chorus:
Then I don’t need to worry,
Everything’s coming up roses,
The day that you go plant them,
Ain’t the day that they bloom,
(Everything’s coming up-)
And you know better than I-
‘Bout the dreams that you have chosen,
But one thing stays consistent,
If you’re patient it’s soon,
Bridge:
So let your roses bloom,
Let your roses bloom,
Let your roses bloom,
Let your roses bloom,
Chorus:
And she says don’t you worry,
Everything’s coming up roses,
The day that you go plant them,
Ain’t the day that they bloom,
(Everything’s coming up-)
And you know better than I-
‘Bout the dreams that you have chosen,
But one thing stays consistent,
If you’re patient it’s soon.
Outro:
Seeing things through my mother’s eyes.
