I don't want you to hold me tight |
|
Till you're mine to hold |
|
And I don't even want you to stay all night |
|
Just until the moon turns cold |
|
All I need is black roses |
|
White rhythm and blues |
|
And somebody who cares when you lose |
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues |
|
You say that somebody really loves you |
|
You'd find her if you just knew how |
|
But honey, everyone in the whole wide world |
|
Is probably asleep by now |
|
And they're dreaming of |
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues |
|
And somebody who cares when you lose |
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues |
|
Close your eyes |
|
Sleep away all your blues |
|
I've done everything but lie |
|
Now I don't know what else I can do |
|
Ah, the night time sighs and I hear myself |
|
But the words just stick in my throat |
|
Would you think that somebody like me |
|
Might hurt much more than it shows |
|
Just send me black roses |
|
White rhythm and blues |
|
And somebody who cares when you lose |
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues |
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues |
