These Old Roses - Nicole Atkins

Do you remember

How fast your heart would beat

When you held me in your sleep?

Smoking in our bed

What was that you said

«Tomorrow is a lie, the biggest rumor of all time»

These old roses

Have seen better days

Where you goin'?

Don’t forget my name

These old roses

I can’t throw away

Got this feeling

You’ll come back my way

These old roses

Have seen better days

I could love you

But couldn’t make you stay

These old roses

At my window pane

Pale hands praying

You’ll return someday

You’ll come back my way

These old roses

These old roses
