Lyrics Twin Peaks – Holding Roses

Oh, save me
From such a sad, sad song
Oh, I’m leanin’ on a lamppost
Oh, I’m meltin’ in the sun

My toes are drippin’ through the sewer
I can feel my heart beatin’ as the tears roll down my tongue
And as the nights are gettin’ cooler
Never thought that you’d be leavin’
Should’ve known that I’d be wrong

Oh goodbye baby, and the music starts to fade
Oh goodbye baby, I really wish ya could’ve stayed

Holdin’ roses in my hand
Moonlight reflectin’ off my tooth
A man will do all that he can, just to be gettin’ over you

And when the sadness lingers with its hand on my shoulder
Well you know it’s been there before
And as the wind blows through my fingers
Feels like I’m gettin’ older every time I turn a door

Goodbye baby, and the curtain starts to sway
Oh goodbye baby, I really wish ya could’ve stayed

I thought you were my sugar, my honey pie
Oh, you make me wanna cry
