Roses and Gold
Verse:
In the garden where the wild things grow
You left me roses in the afterglow
Petals falling like your whispered lies
Painted gold beneath these empty skies
Chorus:
All I wanted was roses and gold
Something warm when the nights got cold
But you gave me thorns, you gave me rust
Love turned ashes, turned to dust
Roses and gold, roses and gold
Stories told that never unfold
