A Bed Of Roses Şiiri - Baray Ural Şahin

They say that I look soulless
But that's my simple awkwardness
When a girl approaches me
Normality isn't what I guarantee

I've seen my use and got hurt by a bunch of fools
The same attitudes never changed with schools
When I look into a pretty girl's eyes
There's no way I can explain the whys

People ignored me for a very long time
For me, trusting people was always a crime
So, I use fancy words to hide my intentions
Because I can't take any more tensions

I hoped that if a girl liked me
She would approach me to get my attention
But most believe that I just ignore them
While I'm testing if they're ready for my dimension

If you want to know more about me
You gotta be patient like the fox
In the novel The Little Prince
Or remember what Sinatra said

"We're on the road to romance
That's safe to say
But let's make all the stops
Along the way

The problem, now, of course is
To simply hold your horses
To rush would be a crime
'Cause nice n' easy does it every time"

Love, for me, is different than lust
Commitment and time is a must
Someone that can't even befriend me
Can never see a bed of roses for her and me
