Lyrics: What do they see These countless boys who try Who think that they’re the right guy They think they’re in love They want to try their hand I just don’t understand Growing up people thought me strange Said I needed to change my disposition I thought love was a stupid thing Nothing more than a dumb tradition I don’t want roses Roses only die I’m not waiting on the picture perfect guy I don’t want you to send letters And wait for my reply I’ll never say I love you Because I don’t wanna lie People think I’m sad They don’t say it but I know They think that I just need to grow a spine They think that I’m wrong And they want me to play along Yeah they want me to see their bottom line Growing up people said Just wait, you’ll catch a twist of fate And then you’ll see But no matter the passing years One thing’s clear It’s not happening to me I don’t want roses Roses only die I’m not waiting on the picture perfect guy I don’t want you to send letters And wait for my reply I’ll never say I love you Cause I don’t wanna lie You may call me a cynic Say my outlook on the world is just not right And what they hear is certain You’re never gonna win this fight I never let any of my affection be displayed Or maybe it’s because I’m afraid That maybe I want roses Even if they die Maybe I’ve been scared he’s not the picture perfect guy And if he were sending letters Maybe I’d reply With one soaked I love you But I wouldn’t wanna lie
Hey Mia, this could be a good song for you. We have to do some research about moment moment and make sure it is age-appropriate for you, but Alexander is a really nice guy and has written a number of phenomenal songs for Broadway.
Yeah, i kind of adjusted them so it was aromantic In between the space of afraid and maybe i want roses i put a soft no then the rest goes I just dont want roses And i think thats fine I wont really care if they’re a picture perfect guy But if he would send letters, maybe I’d reply Just not with i love youu Cause i wouldnt wanna lieee **end**
Hi! Do you know if I can get sheet music for this? I know the world premiere for Moment By Moment isn't until February but it would be amazing to perform this for my theater competition. Thanks :)
Beautiful song with a beautiful voice
Officially love this song & Emma
Lyrics:
What do they see
These countless boys who try
Who think that they’re the right guy
They think they’re in love
They want to try their hand
I just don’t understand
Growing up people thought me strange
Said I needed to change my disposition
I thought love was a stupid thing
Nothing more than a dumb tradition
I don’t want roses
Roses only die
I’m not waiting on the picture perfect guy
I don’t want you to send letters
And wait for my reply
I’ll never say I love you
Because I don’t wanna lie
People think I’m sad
They don’t say it but I know
They think that I just need to grow a spine
They think that I’m wrong
And they want me to play along
Yeah they want me to see their bottom line
Growing up people said
Just wait, you’ll catch a twist of fate
And then you’ll see
But no matter the passing years
One thing’s clear
It’s not happening to me
I don’t want roses
Roses only die
I’m not waiting on the picture perfect guy
I don’t want you to send letters
And wait for my reply
I’ll never say I love you
Cause I don’t wanna lie
You may call me a cynic
Say my outlook on the world is just not right
And what they hear is certain
You’re never gonna win this fight
I never let any of my affection be displayed
Or maybe it’s because
I’m afraid
That maybe I want roses
Even if they die
Maybe I’ve been scared he’s not the picture perfect guy
And if he were sending letters
Maybe I’d reply
With one soaked I love you
But I wouldn’t wanna lie

At first I thought this was gonna be an Aromantic theme song but the ending just threw all those away. i was kind of sad
Yeah, i kind of adjusted them so it was aromantic
In between the space of afraid and maybe i want roses i put a soft no then the rest goes
I just dont want roses
And i think thats fine
I wont really care if they’re a picture perfect guy
But if he would send letters, maybe I’d reply
Just not with i love youu
Cause i wouldnt wanna lieee

Sheet music? Anyone?
The composer has his own TH-cam channel, maybe that will help you?
