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 (pouring) It rains 'fore the dawning (dawning) Warm when you're calling Trust an empty soul To hide the truth 'til 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
