Petal

I've been looking for it all my life
And never found it
Got used to being alone
I know how and I do it so well
Even if we learn to speak the same language
How long can it last
You know as well as I do
How it goes
The way it goes
You are the petal in the rose
But watch out for those thorns
You are the petal in the rose
But watch out for those
I've changed my mind, I've changed my mind
I've changed my mind, I've changed my mind
I've been waiting for it all my life
And so many times I thought
Hey this is it
I'm ready let's go baby
But it all led nowhere
Turned out wrong
And I still believe in it
But not much
I know I'm strong enough to fall again
But isn't it just foolishness
Knowing how it goes
The way it goes
You are the petal in the rose
But watch out for those thorns
You are the petal in the rose
But watch out for those
I've changed my mind, I've changed my mind
I've changed my mind, I've changed my mind
So should we give it
Just another chance
Although I know the odds are against me
We know how to fuck it up
We do it so well
And even if we love each other so much
And plan our lives like we will stay together
Make a home and a family
Can we change the way it goes
How it goes?
You are the petal in the rose
But watch out for those thorns
You are the petal in the rose
But watch out for those
I've changed my mind, I've changed my mind
I've changed my mind, I've changed my mind
