Lay me down in a bed of roses Touch my lips before I sleep You're with me now but when I close my eyes She's in my dreams and the pain's still deep
Like a candle in the wind I'm easy to put out Like a picture through your window You see right through my heart Like a candle in the rain I'm easy to put out Like a picture through your window You see right through my heart
I never knew that nights could be so long Without you And only time will heal time will heal all wounds
I never knew that nights could be so long Without you And only time will heal time will heal all wounds
Lay me down in a bed of roses Feel the thorns they cut my heart The drops of blood they fall and mix with all my tears Have I given up on love
Like the candle in the rain I'm easy to put out Like a picture through your window You see right through my heart
I never knew that nights could be so long Without you And only time will heal time will heal all wounds
I never knew that nights could be so long Without you And only time will heal time will heal all wounds
