La Vie En Rose

What would life be like? Pink like the roses Care free as a lamb Unstoppable like the sunshine Rose beds to lie upon New colourful people to meet every turn Days spent gazing down the meadows Vineyards full of golden grapes. What an interesting life that would be! But unfortunately not the life for me This world is not made of rose pathways Showers of lemons drops The life we lead requires sweat and tears Sleepless nights and endless days So much for La vie en rose I would not have it any other way!
