Blood and Roses

It was long ago

It seems like yesterday

Saw you standing in the rain

Then I heard you say

I want to love

but it comes out wrong

I want to live

but I don't belong

I close my eyes and I see

Blood and roses

Wild flowers in the springtime

October we were wed

In winter time the roses died

Her blood ran cold and then she said

I want to love

but it comes out wrong

I want to live

but I don't belong

I close my eyes and I see

Blood and roses

It was long ago

It seems like yesterday

I saw you standing in the rain

Then I heard you say

I need your love

but it comes out wrong

I tried to live

but I don't belong

I close my eyes and I see

Blood and roses

Blood and roses (roses

roses

Blood and roses (roses

Blood and roses (roses
