Ah, the classic tale of love's dilemma wrapped in a floral metaphor! In "Roses," Shawn Mendes plays the role of the not-so-secret admirer caught in the throes of unrequited love. He's basically holding out a rose (literally and figuratively), asking his crush a million-dollar question: "Will you let our potential love blossom, or is this going to wither away in the friend zone?" It’s all about laying his heart on the line while wrestling with the fear that she might just be happier with someone else. So, will she water the budding romance or leave it to dry out? The suspense is real, folks!
Roses
Lyrics
It's not that I'm afraid I'm not enough for her
It's not that I can't find the words to say
But when she's with him, she seems happier
And I don't want to take that away
How many times can I see your face?
How many times will you walk away?
I just have to let you know
I'm not tryna start a fire, with this flame
But I'm worried that your heart might feel the same
And I have to be honest with you, baby
Tell me if I'm wrong, and this is crazy
But I got you this rose
And I need to know
Will you let it die or let it grow? (Oh-oh, ooh, oh-oh, ooh)
Die or let it go? (Oh-oh, ooh)
Oh (oh-oh, ooh)
It's not that I don't care about the love you have
It's not that I don't want to see you smile
But there's no way that he can feel the same, hey
'Cause when I think of you my mind goes wild
How many times can I see your face?
How many times will you walk away?
I just have to let you know
I'm not tryna start a fire, with this flame
But I'm worried that your heart might feel the same
And I have to be honest with you, baby
Tell me if I'm wrong, this is crazy
But I got you this rose
And I need to know
Will you let it die or let it grow?
You can tell me to stop, if you already know
Though I'm not sure my heart can take it
But the look on your face says, don't let me go
I'm not tryna start a fire, with this flame
But I'm worried that your heart might feel the same
And I have to be honest with you, baby
Tell me if I'm wrong, this is crazy
But I got you this rose
And I need to know
Will you let it die or let it go?
I'm not tryna start a fire, with this flame (with this flame)
But I'm worried that your heart might feel the same
And I have to be honest with you, baby
Tell me if I'm wrong, this is crazy
But I got you this rose
And I need to know
Will you let it die or let it grow? (Oh-oh, ooh, oh-oh, ooh)
(Oh-oh, ooh, oh-oh, ooh)
