Dead Roses

Lyrics

Last night I tossed and turned A new lesson has been learned When you're this close to the fire You can't help getting burned Thought you were different, thought it was great I started thinking but much too late And by the time figured it out There was nowhere I could turn You gave me roses, but now they're dead Dead like the love you threw away I'd like to laugh, but I'll cry instead And start another lonely day I should have waited more But this time, I felt so sure When you put your arms around me And I was wrapped inside Thought you were different, thought it was great I started thinking but much too late And by the time figured it out There was nowhere I could hide You gave me roses, but now they're dead Dead like the love you threw away I'd like to laugh, but I'll cry instead And start another lonely day And I still can't believe The things you said to me And how I fell for every line But if I take my time I know that I will find Someone who'll never say goodbye Last night I tossed and turned A new lesson has been learned When you're this close to the fire You can't help getting burned Thought you were different, thought it was great I started thinking but much too late And by the time figured it out There was nowhere I could turn You gave me roses, but now they're dead Dead like the love you threw away I'd like to laugh, but I'll cry instead And start another lonely day And I still can't believe The things you said to me And how I fell for every line But if I take my time I know that I will find Someone who'll never say goodbye Though I know that I have said these words before It doesn't mean that they don't matter anymore But if I take my time And I don't lose my mind I'll find someone worth waiting for Oh-ho ho-ho-ho
