Rose Dover

[Verse 1]
If you see Rose Dover
That's her secret name
She would meet 3 others
To keep the forest safe

[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "My reality
Got soon called make believe
Imagination's funeral
Killed by the teenage me"

[Chorus 1]
You don't have to throw it away
Throw being a kid away
Just because you're growing up faster everyday
You, you don't have to throw it all away
You don't have to throw it all away
There's a way

[Post-Chorus]
I've been thinking lately it's not a permanent si-si-situation
Just a phase that she's in
I've been thinking lately, I've been thinking lately
It's not permanent

[Verse 2]
A scattering of birds
Above her head
A scattering of birds
That whisper to her

[Chorus 2]
You don't have to throw it away
Throw being a kid away
Just because you're growing up faster everyday
You, you don't have to throw it all away
There's a way

[Verse 2]
Happy was Rose Dover
Speaking badger, fawn, rabbit
Behind the lumberjacks
Pondering the dilemmas
At the Redwood conference

[Pre-Chorus]
She cries, "My reality
Is now called make believe
Imagination's funeral
Killed by the teenage me"

[Chorus 3]
You don't have to throw it away
Throw being a kid away
Just because you're growing up faster everyday
You, you don't have to throw it all away
You don't have to throw it all away
And as you rise, a rose you will forever stay
