Blue Roses - Pam Tillis

Her lips and her dress

They’re both ruby red

She thinks that’s how you hide

The pain you feel inside

And she comes out every night

To soak-up the neon light

Her perfume fills the air

People stop and stare

But Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone’s eyes

Blue Rose is willing to believe in someone’s lies

Blue Rose’s pedals have been crushed along the way

Oh Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday

One more drink, one more dance

You might be her only chance

She needs someone to hold

When the night is growing old

And if you don’t mind the thorns

She’ll take you in and keep you warm

Lyin' in the dark

In a bed of broken hearts

But Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone’s eyes

Blue Rose is willing to believe in someone’s lies

Blue Rose’s pedals have been crushed along the way

Oh Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday
