"Roses" lyrics
I never smelt the roses
I never felt the same
I know my mind was made up
I never saw the change
When all the things that I had known
Far from what I call home
The best I've been, the worst I've known
A second chance, the story's told
You hold it high, you make mistakes
The arms that burn, the lights that fade
To burn the bridge, the price you paid
The times are tough, I swear I got mine...
I never smelt the roses
I never felt the change
I swore that it was over
The fire and the rain
November's always colder
December's dark and grey
If you're holding signs delivered by
All the minds of many kinds
It's in my brain to test my soul
The less I've been, the more I know
The moon has changed, the power is now
Turn my head, release my heart
From everything the darkness came
Release me from this game
And back to love
Cause I been holding on
How did we forget to be love
When love is change
I hope it's better
I'm running desperate
I know you hold on to the things that you can't change
I swear I got time
When it's more than I can take
It feels old but it's familiar
It's tomorrow and today
And it's then and now it's you and I
The strength from all the others sides
The eyes that see the signs that fade
The darkness reigns
The king of change
Before and now
Your reasons fold
Less is more so you've been told
The arms that reach, the grace of God
The eyes that blame an open heart
Don't mind the pain it evens out
The more you dream the less you doubt
The more I'm down the less I'm out
Release me from this game
And back to love
Cause I been holding on
How did we forget to be love
If love is change
Now I hope it's better
Cause I'm running desperate
I know you hold on to the things that you can't change
Now back to love
Cause I been holding on
How did we forget to be love
When love is change
Now I hope it's better
Cause I'm running desperate
I know you hold on to the things that you can't change
That you can't change
I never felt the same
I know my mind was made up
I never saw the change
When all the things that I had known
Far from what I call home
The best I've been, the worst I've known
A second chance, the story's told
You hold it high, you make mistakes
The arms that burn, the lights that fade
To burn the bridge, the price you paid
The times are tough, I swear I got mine...
I never smelt the roses
I never felt the change
I swore that it was over
The fire and the rain
November's always colder
December's dark and grey
If you're holding signs delivered by
All the minds of many kinds
It's in my brain to test my soul
The less I've been, the more I know
The moon has changed, the power is now
Turn my head, release my heart
From everything the darkness came
Release me from this game
And back to love
Cause I been holding on
How did we forget to be love
When love is change
I hope it's better
I'm running desperate
I know you hold on to the things that you can't change
I swear I got time
When it's more than I can take
It feels old but it's familiar
It's tomorrow and today
And it's then and now it's you and I
The strength from all the others sides
The eyes that see the signs that fade
The darkness reigns
The king of change
Before and now
Your reasons fold
Less is more so you've been told
The arms that reach, the grace of God
The eyes that blame an open heart
Don't mind the pain it evens out
The more you dream the less you doubt
The more I'm down the less I'm out
Release me from this game
And back to love
Cause I been holding on
How did we forget to be love
If love is change
Now I hope it's better
Cause I'm running desperate
I know you hold on to the things that you can't change
Now back to love
Cause I been holding on
How did we forget to be love
When love is change
Now I hope it's better
Cause I'm running desperate
I know you hold on to the things that you can't change
That you can't change
