|
Its taste was sweet like summer wine |
|
The heart that beats in double time |
|
So he waltzed right in and bowled you over |
|
And you're still reeling from the feeling when he's gone |
|
The door is closed the lock is turned |
|
And all the memories and letters have been burned |
|
Chorus |
|
So when you pick the handsome flower |
|
Don't forget the thron upon the rose |
|
It's cut is deep and the scar lasts forever |
|
It follows love whereever love goes |
|
Just how we fall it's hard to know |
|
When what we feel we seldom show |
|
So we show the parts we feel are best |
|
We squirm around the edges trying to cover up the rest |
|
And you think you know him and he thinks the same |
|
When underneath it all it's just a crazy guessing game |
|
Chorus |
|
Win or lose it's just the same |
|
Tears of joy tears of pain |
|
They're hand in hand they come as one |
|
You'll never see the moon without the promise of the sun |
|
For all the bruises for all the blows |
|
I'd rather feel the thorn than to never see the rose |
|
Chorus... |
