Rose Dover Lyrics - Unrepentant Geraldines - Tori Amos

if you see Rose Dover 

that's her secret name 

she would meet 3 others 

to keep the forest safe 

she says "my reality was soon called 

Make Believe, imagination's funeral 

killed by the teenage me" 

you don't have to throw it away 

throw being a kid away 

just because you're growing up 

faster everyday 

you don't have to throw it all away 

you don't have to throw it all away 

there's a way 

I've been thinking lately it's not 

a permanent situation 

just a phase that she's in 

I've been thinking lately 

I've been thinking lately 

it's not permanent 

a scattering of birds 

above her head 

a scattering of birds 

that whisper to her 

"you don't have to throw it away 

throw being a kid away 

just because you're growing up 

faster everyday 

you don't have to throw it all away 

there's a way" 

happy was Rose Dover 

speaking badger, fawn, rabbit 

(behind the lumberjacks) 

pondering the dilemma 

at the Redwood conference 

she cries, "my reality is now called 

Make Believe, imagination's funeral 

killed by the teenage me" 

you don't have to throw it away 

throw being a kid away 

just because you're growing up 

faster everyday 

you don't have to throw it all away 

you don't have to throw it all away 

and as you rise 

a rose you will forever stay
