Morrissey - Rose Garden (Live at the Grand Ole Opry, Nashville) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus]
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There has to be a little rain sometime

[Verse 1]
When you take, you gotta give
So live and let live or let go oh oh oh oh
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden

[Verse 2]
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growing in stalks of clover
So you better think it over
If sweet talking you could make it come true
I could give you the world right now on a silver platter
But what would it matter?

[Pre-Chorus]
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can

[Chorus]
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There has to be a little rain sometime
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden

[Bridge]
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
If that's what it takes to hold you
Then I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know
Look before you leap, still waters run deep
There won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talking about

[Pre-Chorus]
So smile for a while, let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can

[Chorus]
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There has to be a little rain sometime
