Rose Full Of Tears

Written by More Or Les
Leslie Seaforth (SOCAN)

VERSE:
Grabbed your hand and said "run for your Life."
Don't remember much else that was said to you
at the time, but a feeling of fright
that comes back again once or twice was felt,
on top of the thrill of meeting this guy.
Saved your life and the world at the same time.
Invited you to see the wonders of Life,
but still, there's some anguish behind his eyes.
Mentions a Time War every once in a while.
The last of the Time Lords; still able to smile.
Finds joy in sadness, peace in some madness.
Tries to make good from lives that get tragic
Passion for everyone he meets. passing
that gift on to you. Feels like magic.
Lasting all your life. And that's the plan since.
Traveling with him's as good as you can have it.
Trade the Council Housing for adventure.
Save the universe more times than could be measured.
Pressured by your mom and boyfriend ta’
stay home. But that's not the plan - ain't no
way you're gonna’ stop the travel. But "Bad Wolf" –
two words that lead to battle - just unravel
your life. More fights than you could ever handle
with Daleks, that gets worse – you get abandoned.
Sent back home to lead a normal life, while he's
trapped in the future losing a fight
of cosmic proportions. Of course you're never gonna’
accept that as your reality. He never asked to be
helped, but now he needs it. Proceed wit a
plan to get the ship but need him to operate the
thing, until you released its energy
from its core. Back to the future once more
to defeat the Daleks and save his life,
but at a price - it's possible the energy might
just kill you. Healed you with a kiss that didn't
thrill you, filled with sadness since
he absorbed it all at the expense of his own
Life. But he's a Time Lord, so he won't
die in the way that regular people know.
No need to cry Rose, he gets reborn.

CHORUS (2x’s):
Nothin hurts more to see than a
Rose full of tears. But wit a
doctor's help, I'm sure you will get rid a
all of your fears. He only
wants the best, and there's no one else he would
rather appear by his
side. And it's clear
just why you're here.
