Tender As a Rose

Tão Delicada Quanto uma Rosa

Tender As a Rose

Ela era tão delicada quanto uma rosaShe was as tender as a rose
Ela era tão suave quanto a neveShe was as soft as snowy down
E da cabeça aos pésAnd from her head down to her toes
Ela era um sonho que pairava por aíShe was a dream that hung around

Ela era tão fresca quanto abrilShe was as fresh as april
Quente como maioWarm as may
E todos os caras jogavam seus corações foraAnd all the fellas threw their hearts away
Mas todo o amor dela era do Joe, ela era tão delicada quanto uma rosaBut all of her lovin was joe's she was as tender as a rose

Acho que o Joe estava bem malI guess that joe was pretty sick
Os sentimentos dele iam de frio a quenteHis feelings went from cold to hot
O amor dela pra ele era só um tapaHer love to him was just a kick
O ego dele precisava muito delaHis ego needed her a lot

E quando ele a levou, ela estava sorrindoAnd when he took her away she wore a smile
O destino cruzou os dedos por aquela linda garotaFate crossed it's fingers for that lovely child
Porque todo o amor dela era do JoeCause all of her lovin' was joe's
Ela era tão delicada quanto uma rosaShe was as tender as a rose

Ela voltou andando sozinhaShe came back walking all alone
Não ficou fora por muito tempoShe wasn't gone for very long
Ela voltou com um coração de pedraShe came back with a heart of stone
Sabíamos que tudo tinha dado erradoWe knew that everything had gone wrong

E quando você pergunta por que ela sai toda noiteAnd when you ask her why she's out each night
Ela vai dizer: "irmão, uma vez eu tentei fazer tudo certoShe'll say, "brother, once i tried to be right
Uma vez todo o meu amor era do JoeOnce all of my loving was joe's
Eu era tão delicada quanto uma rosa."I was as tender as a rose."
Ela era tão delicada quanto uma rosaShe was as tender as a rose
