Black Rose

Oh, I know it all looks good When you're starting out You can see where your heart should go But somehow every time You lose at love again The distance between you grows I can see you carry a black rose Ah, those silver moonbeams Always find you out Like a shining lover It's as cold as ice And as dark as your deepest dream Don't look over your shoulder I see you carry a black rose People tell you, fade away You might as well fade away Don't you know, the future is your fire anyway You might as well fade... Fade away But what happens is... Your mouth gets dry And you dream a little too much And baby starts to tremble She says "forever" And you stir in your sleep Doesn't it show? Doesn't she know by now?... You carry a black rose.
