The first song inspired and written for the upcoming debut novel, “Roses Grow in June”  by Azalea Guan. 

The tale of romance set in the 2000s, Roseanne crosses paths with June, a vibrant love unraveling with themes of first love and loss of innocence. 

From playful gestures and exchanging each other’s very firsts, yet every love story comes to an end — here is the beginning of something new. In a small town, by the river dock…

INTRO ♫

♫

I’m late to a party

I was uninvited

You pace back and forth, It’s October

And there’s no way we can all call it off

FIRST VERSE ♫

It’s Autumn and you free fall 

Into red leaves and your melancholy freefalls 

The hours pass by, and you see

I’m still here

I can tell you goodbye

But I won’t just for the sake of it all 

Do you know the lovers who had to end it either way?

But I’m still here

CHORUS ♫

You pace back and forth

Hey, we will never run our course

Do you know the lovers who had to bury themselves alive?

And you say, “Roses grow in June.”

Do you know the lovers who had to die in solitude?

It’s Autumn, it will be November soon

I won’t let this end

Like the last time I buried myself alive

Can you see?

I’m still here

I’m still here

♫

VERSE 2  ♫

Do you know the lovers who had to end it either way?

Hey, It won’t be us

♫

I’m still here

BRIDGE ♫

When will it be when you say

“Roses start to wither in Autumn”

Winter is near

I’m still here, standing by your kitchen alley 

I’ll linger for longer 

If that’s what you really want

♫

CLOSING ♫

Do you know the lovers who had to end it either way?

Hey, It w  so on’t be us

♫

I’m still here
