"Roses" lyrics

"Roses"

You brought them to my door
Stood there on the front porch
That was the beginning
We had those tires spinning
Down on the green grass
Outside of town
Wild and free, never slowing down
I thought I needed you like air

We burned hot, burned out, like a flame
But in my head, you'll never fade

Yeah, we were classic
My dress, your leather jacket
Didn't know how good we had it
But, boy, we had it
14th of February, gotta feeling my heart still carries
Yeah, we didn't know it
Thought we could grow it
Beautiful for a moment
We were roses
We were roses

You put one in my hair
Danced in the middle of nowhere
You and me all summer
Bright and living color

My lips were red
Your eyes were blue
And I thought I saw forever in you

Yeah, we were classic
My dress, your leather jacket
Didn't know how good we had it
But, boy, we had it
14th of February, gotta feeling my heart still carries
Yeah, we didn't know it
Thought we could grow it
Beautiful for a moment
We were roses

The seasons had to change
And like flowers they bloom and withered away

Yeah, we were classic
My dress, your leather jacket
Didn't know how good we had it
It was so good while it lasted

Yeah, we were classic
My dress, your leather jacket
Didn't know how good we had it
But, boy, we had it
14th of February, gotta feeling my heart still carries
Yeah, we didn't know it
Thought we could grow it
Beautiful for a moment
We were roses
