Our Life is a tender but quietly devastating duet between Florence and Rose, set seven years after Rose’s creation. What begins as a gentle celebration of shared routines, safety, and love slowly reveals a widening fracture: Florence’s need to protect, and Rose’s need to grow.

Built in E major with a steady, heartbeat-like pulse, the song alternates and overlaps their voices as they circle the same memories from very different places. Florence offers devotion, shelter, and certainty. Rose asks for air, risk, and the right to choose her own path.

Key: E Major.

OUR LIFE

Verse 1 (Florence)

(Florence takes a necklace out and puts it around Rose’s neck)

Seven years and we’re still ticking along, With books and gowns and coloured crowns, We dance from dusk and until the breaking dawn.

Verse 2 (Rose)

There’s a world outside I long to see, Not trinkets, I want something for me.

Chorus (Florence & Rose – alternating lines)

Florence: We have our life, the home we adore. Rose: But I want more. Rose: Let’s explore the world together. Florence: Let’s just stay here forever.

Verse 3 (Florence)

We have our life, you make me shine bright And our love is my guiding light, I give you everything that you will ever need.

Verse 4 (Rose)

Why, can you, hear me? The world is calling… You’re just scared, can’t you see?

Chorus (Florence & Rose – alternating lines)

Florence: We have our life, the home we adore. Rose: But I want more. Rose: Let’s explore the world together. Florence: Let’s just stay here forever.

Verse 5 (Florence)

I built you strong, I built you kind, With a heart, soul and a mind. You lit my life; you chased the dark away.

Verse 6 (Rose)

I want to breathe, I want to roam, Let me try, Or I’ll do it alone.

Chorus (Florence & Rose)

Florence: We have our life, the home we adore, Rose: Don’t you want more? Rose: Why can’t we see the world together? Florence: We’ll stay safe here forever.
