Lyrics
Someday the silver moon and I will go to Dreamland
I will close my eyes and wake up there in Dreamland
But tell me who will put flowers on a flower's grave?
Who will say a prayer?
Will I meet a China rose there in Dreamland?
Or does love lie bleeding in Dreamland?
Are these days forever and always
And if we are to die tonight
Is there moonlight up ahead?
And if we are to die tonight
Another rose will bloom
For a faded rose
Will I be the one that you save?
I love when it showers
But no one puts flowers on a flower's grave
As one rose blooms, then another will die
It's always been that way
I remember the showers
But no one puts flowers on a flower's grave
And if we are to die tonight
Is there moonlight up ahead?
I remember the showers
But no one puts flowers on a flower's grave
