Tom Waits - Flower's Grave lyrics

rate me

Someday the silver moon and I

Will go to Dreamland

I will close my eyes

And wake up there in Dreamland

But tell me who will put flowers

On a flower's grave

Who will say a prayer

Will I meet a China rose there in Dreamland

Or does love lie bleeding in Dreamland

Are these days gone forever and always

If we are to die tonight

Is there moonlight up ahead

And if we are to die tonight

Another rose will bloom

For a faded rose

Will I be the one that you save

I love it when it showers

But no one puts flowers

On a flower's grave

As one rose blooms another will die

It's always been that way

I remember the showers

But no one puts flowers

On a flower's grave

If we are to die tonight

Is there moonlight up ahead

I remember the showers

But no one puts flowers

On a flower's grave
