Lyrics
The rose that blooms in her room on the windowsill
Will remain there until he returns
Dried and spent although she meant to water them
She cherishes them
Ugly rose
They said in time you may outgrow your shell little one
Your need for that one
But they don’t know
A drink or two will soothe the blues
Til back comes her baby
He’s hers to lose
Jokers who play at the hands
Of the powerful man
This town is riddled with them
And he understands
Who’ll fly blindly to the light
Of complacency
Where things are just as they should be
Do you disagree
The thoughts and visions in her head
She’s tried them they’re true
They all involve loving you
Forever more
Walk beside her through the snow
Through the wind and the cold
Be her muse she’ll be your
Lovely rose
A drink or two will soothe the blues
Til back comes her baby
He’s hers to lose
