Prefab Sprout - Blue Roses lyrics
[Prefab Sprout - Blue Roses lyrics]
Before I ever let you go
Blue roses will grow up to the sky
Before I ever make you cry blue roses
You need more reassurance than
A frightened orphan child
That I'm always gonna want you
That I'll always be beguilded
So I search for words to tell you
That my love for you is blind
But this fragment of a children's song
Is all that I can find
Blue roses will blossom in the snow
Before I ever let you go
Blue roses will grow up to the sky
Before I ever make you cry blue roses
This nursery rhyme is corny
It is stranded out of time
Yet it's simple and it's honest
And since when was that a crime?
And perhaps whoever wrote it
Loved someone like I love you
For in matters of the heart I've learned
There's little that is new
Blue roses will blossom in the snow
Before I ever let you go
Blue roses will grow up to the sky
Before I ever make you cry
Blue roses will blossom in the snow
Before I ever let you go
Blue roses will grow up to the sky
Before I ever make you cry
Before I ever make you cry blue roses
