Promise Me A Rose

Is there a gift in loss?

Then gifted more than me there ain't none

A fire burns for you

Burnt so long so bold but untouched

Hope can come in different ways

I don't need to kiss or make love

As long as I exist in those tears

Promise me a rose, it's enough

Promise me a rose

It's all good if it's done by the morning

But more time that's the time that it's wanting

All that I've learned by the door

Hurts that I don't ask for more

I don't ask enough

Not asking for much

I'm out in the cold when it's pouring

It rains 'fore the dawning

Warm when you're calling

Trust an empty soul

To hide the truth till lies beat the sun

It's all of me you stole

But I'm too late from you I'll have none

I wish I found a different way

I don't need to kiss or make love

As long as I exist in those tears

Promise me a rose, it's enough

I don't ask enough

Not asking for much

I'm out in the cold when it's pouring

It rains 'fore the dawning

Warm when you're calling

Fear I've said too much

More than most they'd probably give up

I saw you came for him

Can't you give the time to seek us

Hope can come in different ways

I don't need to kiss or make love

As long as I exist in those tears

Promise me a rose, it's enough

Promise me a rose

Promise me a rose, it's enough

Promise me a rose
