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
