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)
It’s fast and furious
Hurts the way it should
Find ‘em hiding in the corners

I think out loud what’s happened to me?
Roses are red, Roses are red
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?
Is there something more important to accidentally find the one?
So who’s fooling who, no don’t change the rules.
We’re heading straight for danger, and I mean you!
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 »
