TYING UP ROSES

I just feel like a day of tying up roses
Won’t you come and tie them with me
And they’ll hang in the air, til the winter finds them there
And a cold wind makes their petals fall and turn back into dust

I just feel like a night of lying beside you
Nights can get so lonely these days
I would hold you so close in that space that no-one knows
Where the secrets of our love were whispered o’ so many nights

And the days just can’t get full,
they’re filled with holes, the joy runs through
And the nights just don’t get warm, when there is no-one holding you
And the weeks just won’t go by, they crave the scent of that perfume
Another year will never come, another rose will never bloom..

I just feel like a day of tying up roses
Won’t you come and tie them with me
And they’ll hang in the air, ‘til the winter finds them there
And a cold wind makes their petals fall and turns them into dust
