plant white roses

Singer:magnetic fields, the

when i poured my heart out

blood flowed

i planted you

watered you with tears

and watched you grow away from me

so much for my green thumb

i've overstayed my welcome

plant white roses and plan to cry

if i can't spend my life with you

plant white roses

i wanna die

if i can't spend my life with you

when you're gone i stumble and fall

i'm told you don't wanna stay around

those trains call -- you're all i need

but you need more than country songs

you need to be getting along

plant white roses and plan to cry

if i can't spend my life with you

plant white roses

i wanna die

if i can't spend my life with you

you'll have to stay

you'll have to stay and watch them grow

you'll have to stay

you'll have to stay and watch them grow

you'll have to stay

you'll have to stay and watch them grow

plant white roses and plan to cry

if i can't spend my life with you

plant white roses

i wanna die

if i can't spend my life with you

my life with you

my life with you
