Blood And Roses - Smithereens, Pat, DiNizio

It was long ago

It seems like yesterday

I saw you standing in the rain

Then I heard you say

«I want to love, but it comes out wrong

I want to live, but I don’t belong»

I close my eyes and I see

Blood and roses

I brought flowers in the springtime

October, we were wed

In winter time, the roses died

Her blood ran cold, and then she said

«I want to love, but it comes out wrong

I want to live, but I don’t belong»

I close my eyes and I see

Blood and roses

It was long ago

It seems like yesterday

I saw you standing in the rain

Then I heard you say

«I need your love, but it comes out wrong

I’ve tried to live, but I don’t belong»

I close my eyes and I see

Blood and roses
