Holding Roses

(album: Down In Heaven - 2016)

Oh, save me
From such a sad, sad song
Oh, I'm leaning on a lamppost
Oh, I'm melting in the sun

My toes are dripping through the sewer
I can feel my heart beating as the tears roll down my tongue
And as the nights are getting cooler
Never thought that you'd be leaving
Should've known that I'd be wrong

Oh goodbye baby, and the music starts to fade
Oh goodbye baby, I really wish ya could've stayed

Holding roses in my hand
Moonlight reflecting off my tooth
A man will do all that he can, just to be getting over you

And when the sadness lingers with its hand on my shoulder
Well you know it's been there before
And as the wind blows through my fingers
Feels like I'm getting older every time I turn a door

Goodbye baby, and the curtain starts to sway
Oh goodbye baby, I really wish ya could've stayed

I thought you were my sugar, my honey pie
Oh, you make me wanna cry
