Lyrics The Smithereens – Blood And Roses
Text:
It was long ago
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
Love flowers in the springtime
October we were wed
In wintertime the roses died
The 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
Seems like yesterday
Saw you standing in the rain
Then I heard you say
I need your love but it comes out wrong
I try to live but I don’t belong
I close my eyes and I see
Blood and roses
Blood and roses
Blood and roses
Blood and roses
