Rose

Rose on the bedside From when I told her those three words And it's seen better days Still, so still he lays next to her She tells him "No shoes on the carpet," they stumble upstairs She wants to be wanted, but nobody cares Her body's an object, love's just an emotion But she's getting upset, her eyes bring the ocean She's tired of waiting for someone who ain't there She got too complacent, he brushes her hair She starts to give in now, pushes the air Out of her laundry And now she's taking off her clothes For somebody she don't know and I'm alone again He spots a single rose Picks it up and blows the petals off the stem As the petals hit the ground to the hollow sound Of love's last goodbye Well, she takes a look around, up and down And why even try? Now she's taking off her clothes For somebody she don't know and I'm alone again She spots a single rose Picks it up and blows the petals off the stem Oh, and as the petals hit the ground, I take a look around And I don't see her, oh, no And as she hears the hollow sound, the tears are falling down 'Cause I still need you Rose on the bedside From when I told her those three words
