Trampled Rose

Long way, going to get my medicine Sky's the autumn grey of a lonely wren Piano from a window played Gone tomorrow, gone yesterday Found it in the street At first I did not see Lying at my feet, a trampled rose Passing the hat in church It never stops going 'round You never pay just once To get the job done What I done to me I done to you What happened to the trampled rose? In the muddy street With the fireworks and leaves A blind man with a cup I asked Would he sing "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine"? I know this rose Like I know my name The one I gave my love It was the same Now I find it in the street, a trampled rose
