Lyrics
She thought she heard the sound of a million stars fall around her
She thought she saw an angel spread his wings and dry the eyes of her child
She thought she?d touch the world with the words that her father whispered
Softly, when she was in his arms
Safely in his arms
Oh so long ago when life was but a dream
Elizabeth sits alone as the rain falls upon the rose
A memory of where her life would lead her
Elizabeth sits alone as a tear falls upon the rose
And so it goes, she?ll spend her life so lonely
Together, forever with the rose
She wished upon the moon for a day, just a day in a sunbeam
She wished beneath the night for an hour upon a rising tide
She opened up her heart to the heavens for a sign of a rainbow
For colours in her eyes
But something in her mind
Believed a time when life was just a dream
Elizabeth sits alone as the rain falls upon the rose
A memory of where her life would lead her
Elizabeth sits alone as a tear falls upon the rose
And so it goes, she?ll spend her life so lonely
Together, forever with the rose
And there she stayed by her window
Watching years go by and keeping time as just a picture
A picture of her hours
Framed in life and painted by her hand
Elizabeth sits alone as the rain falls upon the rose
A memory of where her life would lead her
Elizabeth sits alone as a tear falls upon the rose
And so it goes, she spent her life so lonely
Together, forever with the rose
