Roses
Peter and the Bear Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not now babe, I need just five more minutes
We'll catch up soon enough
You'll be with me holding my hand, all the time, for everything I do
A single touch by the tip of my finger will turn you on, turn you off
Rose!
I own you
I need you
What you show, what you tell, what you do, and how you do it
Are meant to fit
I carefully choose your set of skills and even the shape of your body
When you're tired and weak, from behind you'll need it
We share so much you and I
This will live on forever in the clouds
You are the one, I'm so proud
I can't sleep without you talking to me
I can't wake up without you singing for me
I can't take a deuce without you staring at me
I can't think without you thinking for me
I can't be without you being with me
Rose!
You own me
You'll kill me
We share so much you and I
This will live on forever in the clouds
You are the one, I'm so proud
You are the one, I'm so proud
The lyrics to "Roses" by Peter and the Bear describe a deeply intimate relationship between the singer and someone named Rose. The beginning of the song paints the picture of waking up every morning to a "pretty song" of Rose's. However, the singer is in no rush to see Rose, saying "not now babe, I need just five more minutes." This creates a sense of familiarity and comfort between the two, where even a brief separation doesn't seem to affect their relationship.
The chorus of the song reveals the intensity and ownership present in their relationship. The singer claims ownership over Rose, saying "I own you, I need you," and goes on to detail the lengths they went to create the perfect "set of skills" and "shape of [her] body." This may hint at a possible romantic jealousy, where the singer doesn't want anyone to be with Rose but them. Towards the end of the song, the roles are reversed and Rose takes ownership of the singer instead. The lyrics make it clear that their connection is so strong that they can't exist without each other. The final line of "You are the one, I'm so proud" further emphasizes the depth of their relationship.
