Dead Red Roses Lyrics

As i walked out

She took me at my word

I`ll be gone when you get back

Was the last thing i heard

Empty spaces in the wardrobe

Snow white folded sheets

Dead red roses in the

Jar on the mantlepiece

A love that spawned

We thought could never die

But it burned itself right out

In the wink of an eye

And its so,that you dont miss

What you got till its gone

Dead red roses made me see

What i had done

Dead red roses,

Dead red roses

For the love that died

Was enshrined Dead red roses

She begged and she pleaded

Baby please stay

And i heard her start to cry

As i walked away

I should have turned around

Ohh but i kept right on

Dead red roses is all i have left

Now she has gone

Dead red roses,

Dead red roses

For the love that died

Was enshrined Dead red roses

At night,cold and dark

And i feel so alone

Seems theres a hole up in the sky

Where the sun was shown

When i close my eyes

I see her pretty face

When they open

Dead red roses are in her place

Dead red roses,

Dead red roses

For the love that died

Was enshrined Dead red roses

Dead red roses,

Dead red roses

For the love that died

Was enshrined Dead red roses
