This song is Roses Are Red.  It took our band 17 days from concept to final recording.  It was the very first song by Hard To Get and we knew from that day forward, we were good enough to produce nothing but original music.  I was always very proud of my lyrics and as the front man, I stood tall and eager to show the women of the world that I had as much substance to my romantic notions as I did words.  You be the judge.  I submit to you:

Roses Are Red (mp3 format)

If we had a fight I’d forget what was said

Roses are red, Roses are red

If love is blind I’ll get you out of my head

Now who’s to know the reason why rascals find love?

I was a crazy cure she believed.

I was a flash on her, she could deceive

Now she’s a reckless hunter looking for me

And now I’m desperately focused to find myself free

Oh you want to find me serious, don’t you wish you could.

I see you fear’n in a corner ...love once misunderstood....   more »
