"Roses in the Rain" Lyrics

(Ooh-oh)
(Ooh-oh)

This is where she finds herself, alone and empty handed
Abandoned building and she's stranded, chosen and demanded
This is where she needs to be, watching passing traffic
Faraway expression painted, brave and laughing tragic
He's the same and somewhere else in cold and blinding silence
Doesn't want to leave the house, he's in divine defiance
Harmonizing unbeknownst, studying the ceiling
They're running for their lives from everybody and concealing

Roses in the rain
Bend or you will break
The sun will rise again
For roses in the rain

Little birds make pretty music, always tell their secrets
Empty beds and heavy heads, we're dreaming though we're sleepless
Falling stars, concentric circles, roses in the rain
The image of our truest self exposes in the pain
Looking through our photographs, the melody is clarified
Waiting for the storm to pass like Liberty is paralysed
There's a wolf that lives inside me, you have got one too
They recognize one another, they can see right through

Roses in the rain
Bend or you will break
The sun will rise again
For roses in the rain

Distant lover reminisces
Faraway mister and missus
Hopelessness versus ambitious
Was the truth, becomes fictitious
Embraces that heal the vicious
Boredom kills, she's feeling listless
Catching birds and reeling fishes
Hides the truth, concealing witness

Open heart revealing wishes
Temptation, appealing business
Sits behind the wheel and listens
Slowly, surely dealing with this
Passing time and healing distance
Almost like it's really Christmas
Drunk on love, the kneeling mistress
Taking chances stealing kisses
(Kisses, kisses)

Roses in the rain
Bend or you will break
The sun will rise again
For roses in the rain
Like roses in the rain

Roses in the rain
Composes, in the vein
Closes and constrains
Imposes on the pain
(Like roses in the rain)

Roses in the rain
Composes, in the vein
Closes and constrains
Imposes on the pain
(Like roses in the rain)

Like roses in the rain
