Ah. Second hand Rose. Well, Lida Rose, I’m home again Rose, without a sweetheart to my name. Lida Rose, how everyone knows that I am hoping you’re the same. ---

Don’t get too attached to Rose. When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong, just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snow lies the seed that with the sun’s love, in the spring becomes the Rose. On the other hand, a lemon tree is very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet, but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat. ---

Lemon. See through in the sunlight. She wore lemon. But never in the daylight. She’s gonna make you cry. She’s gonna make you whisper and moan. And when you’re dry, she draws her water from the stone ---

> [@silenus](#): > > She’s gonna make you cry. Yes she did. I ain’t saying she treated me unkind. She could have done better but I don’t mind. She just kinda wasted my precious time, but don’t think twice, it’s all right. ---

That’s because she was married when we first met, soon to be divorced. I helped her out of a jam, I guess, but I used a little too much force. ---

Listen here baby. A woman here a woman there try to keep me in a plastic cage. But they don’t realise it’s so easy to break. Feel my heart kind a gettin’ hot. That’s when I got to move before I get caught. Stone free do what I please, Stone free to ride the breeze. ---

Well East coast girls are hip. I really dig those styles they wear (though I wish they all could be California girls). Was she like a virgin, touched for the very first time? ---

Well, to be honest, I found out a long time ago what a woman can do to your soul. Althoug she can’t take you anyway you don’t already know how to go. Doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate the help.
