David Byrne - The Rose Tattoo lyrics

And they were imagining roses

As if life itself were a dream

Is a gift not a reason for living?

Not enoughnot enoughso it seems

Lost in the stars

Venus and mars

And I'm in heaven again

I'll drink to you

The rose tattoo

I'm the invisible man

If all the dead are now living

And all of the living will die

Buying their tickets and changing their trains

Into the city and back home again

I'll drink to you

The rose tattoo

I'm the invisible man

Brinde a la rosa

Y al hombre que no vive

Perdido en un sueãä

En un atmosfer imposible

Una rosa sueãä imposible

Una rosa sueãä imposible

No queda nada

Solo la lluvia irresistible

Tatuaje de la rosapero el hombre es invisible

Una rosa sueãä imposible

Una rosano queda nada

Now I haven't seen you for ages

Come income out of the rain

Open the doorway and climb up the stairs

This is the bedroom where we said our prayers

I'll drink to you

The rose tattoo

I'm the invisble man

The singer's playin' "fly me to the moon"

And I'm in heaven again

Brinde a la rosa

Y al hombre que no vive

Perdid en un sueãä

En un atmosfer imposible

Una rosa sueãä imposible

Una rosa sueãä imposible

No queda nada

Solo la lluvia irresistible

Tatuaje de la rosa

Pero el hombre es invisible

Una rosa sueãä imposible

Una rosano queda nada

I'll drink to you

The rose tattoo

I'm the invisible man

Long live the king

Nothing remains

Only a rose tattoo
