Codeine Velvet Club - The Black Roses lyrics

rate me

Please baby let me sit by your fire

I'll steal all of the things that you desire

Midnight's howl and jukebox love

Are the only things I'm dreaming of

Don't misunderstand me when I say

I can't hear anything that your saying

Twenty steps to heaven and then you leave me praying

I'm not the kind of girl to be impressed by that

Someday soon when the black roses wither

You'll remember her

And everything you didn't give her

And I'll be the one you see

When you can't turn back

The walls pound and my hands shake in the night

My heart freezes in cold wonderous fright

12th street jokes, worn out pride

There's nothing much left here to hide

I could drown for days on last years tide

I don't buy anything that you're saying

I don't believe the half of it, the cards that you've

been playing

I'm not the kind of girl to be impressed by that

Someday soon when the black roses wither

You'll remember her and everything you didn't give her

And I'll be the one you see

When you turn your back.

I don't buy anything that your saying

I don't believe the half of it, the cards that you've

been playing.

I'm not the kind of girl to be impressed by that.

Someday soon when the black roses wither You'll

remember her and everything you didn't give her

And I'll be the one you see

When you turn your back
