The Rose Tattoo (Bomba, Mozambique) 3:50
(D. Byrne/W. Colon)
And they were imagining Roses
As if life itself were a dream
Is a gift not a reason for living?
Not enough, not enough, so 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 sueno
en un atmosfer imposible
Una Rosa sueno imposible
Una Rosa sueno imposible
No queda nada
Solo la lluvia irresistible
Tatuaje de la Rosa, pero el hombre es invisible
Una Rosa sueno imposible
Una Rosa, no queda nada
Now I haven't seen you for ages
Come in, come 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
Toast to the rose
And to the man who does not live
Lost in a dream
in an impossible atmosphere
A Rose is an impossible dream
A Rose is an impossible dream
There is nothing left
Only the irresistible rain
Rose Tattoo,
but the man is invisible
A Rose impossible dream
One Rose, there is nothing left
I'll drink to 9ou
The Rose Tattoo
I'm the invisible man
Long live the King
Nothing remains
Only a Rose Tattoo
