Lyrics
BLUE ROSES
Words and Music by Claire Machado @ 1992
Went to the mat..
Did my time..
I gave all I had ...only to find..
Blue Roses
Don't bring anything but pain
Blue Roses
Didn't want to have to walk away again..
And as the years take their toll
another piece of my soul has lost its heart
Should be no surprise
it was there in your eyes from the start
Tried not to fall..
Or lose my mind..
I rose to your call.. but one more time..
Blue Roses
Don't bring anything but pain
Blue Roses
Didn't want to have to walk away again..
And when the dust has settled and the hands have all been played
I hope you will forgive me,
it's me, I learned to save...from
Blue Roses..
Don't bring anything but pain
Blue Roses
Didn't want to have to walk away again..
