The Milk Carton Kids - A Sea of Roses lyrics
[The Milk Carton Kids - A Sea of Roses lyrics]
I lose sleep at night like a young man
Who's in the fight of his young life
I have never known the way the wind
Would blow if everything were fine
I'm scared that when I die I'll be alone
With no one sitting by my side
No, I do not think that I
Could be alone when I die
Lay me down in the ground
Put me back into the earth
Among all of my friends
Under a blanket of roses
A sea of flowers overhead
A field outside of Nashville pitches color
To the dreariness of day
So the air hangs soft and tender
Blowin' 'round my thoughts whichever way
Where hills, they rise for miles and miles
I recognize the cryin' in the wind
I hear people come from everywhere to
Say goodbye sweet-like to their kin
Lay me down in the ground
Put me back into the earth
Among all of my friends under
A blanket of roses a sea of flowers overhead
That is right
I don't believe anymore than skies above
It's just me and those I've loved
Under a blanket of roses
A sea of flowers overhead when I die
Who's in the fight of his young life
I have never known the way the wind
Would blow if everything were fine
I'm scared that when I die I'll be alone
With no one sitting by my side
No, I do not think that I
Could be alone when I die
Lay me down in the ground
Put me back into the earth
Among all of my friends
Under a blanket of roses
A sea of flowers overhead
A field outside of Nashville pitches color
To the dreariness of day
So the air hangs soft and tender
Blowin' 'round my thoughts whichever way
Where hills, they rise for miles and miles
I recognize the cryin' in the wind
I hear people come from everywhere to
Say goodbye sweet-like to their kin
Lay me down in the ground
Put me back into the earth
Among all of my friends under
A blanket of roses a sea of flowers overhead
That is right
I don't believe anymore than skies above
It's just me and those I've loved
Under a blanket of roses
A sea of flowers overhead when I die
