The Roses -

If yesterday was history

Then life’s just mystery

Created nightmares

In a world full big dreams

Everything I did in this world

I swear I did for you

Even though we were young

And mor of the time we were drunk

Life in the fast lane

Trying to become one

On the wrong side of the tracks

In a world not meant for two

Somehow, it was all justified…

Take back the roses

Give me back my life

Take back the heartache

The hunger and the strive

You can have the moment

Save your face tonight

Cus if i told you once

I’ve told you a million times

(This ain’t right)

(Verse 2):

I know we said things

Said things we didn’t mean

Used all the big words

That killed all of the big dreams

Kids in love in a world that seemed bulletproof

Even though I was wrong

When we could have had it all

A different melody

Trying to play the same song

Over and over in a world not meant to rule

Somehow, it was all justified…

Take back the roses

Give me back my life

Take back the heartache

The hunger and the strive

You can have the moment

Save your face tonight

Cus if I told you once

I’ve told you a million times

It was tough to see

You were there for me

The whole time

(Oohh, Oohh)

If you still believe

In what you see

Let’s give ir everything, this time…

Take back the roses

Give me back my life

Take back the heartache

The hunger and the strive

You can have the roses

Give me back my life

Take back the heartache

The hunger and the strive

You can have the moment

Save your face tonight

Cus if I told you once

I’ve told you a million times

(This ain’t right)

Let’s make it right

Cus if I told you once

I’ve told you a million times

This ain’t right…

Yesterday was history

Then life’s just mystery…
