"Promise Me A Rose" lyrics

Is there a gift in loss?
Then gifted more than me there ain't none
A fire burns for you
Burnt so long so bold but untouched
Hope can come in different ways
I don't need to kiss or make love
As long as I exist in those tears
Promise me a rose, it's enough
Promise me a rose

It's all good if it's done by the morning
But more time that's the time that it's wanting
All that I've learned by the door
Hurts that I don't ask for more

I don't ask enough
Not asking for much
I'm out in the cold when it's pouring
It rains 'fore the dawning
Warm when you're calling

Trust an empty soul
To hide the truth till lies beat the sun
It's all of me you stole
But I'm too late from you I'll have none
I wish I found a different way
I don't need to kiss or make love
As long as I exist in those tears
Promise me a rose, it's enough

I don't ask enough
Not asking for much
I'm out in the cold when it's pouring
It rains 'fore the dawning
Warm when you're calling

Fear I've said too much
More than most they'd probably give up
I saw you came for him
Can't you give the time to seek us
Hope can come in different ways
I don't need to kiss or make love
As long as I exist in those tears
Promise me a rose, it's enough
Promise me a rose
Promise me a rose, it's enough
Promise me a rose
