Bette of Roses lyrics

When the white bird flies
From your heart to mine
I surrender every part of me
To the tenderness

Could it be the wine
In your eyes stars shine
And I'm feeling like a child again
Oh, it's taken me a little time
To find words to say

Stay
Make this forever
And lay love in my life
Come what may
Cherish each moment of love
As dreams go by

If the first glow fades

Long, long ago, where the tall grass grows
and the still air is sweet with summer flowers;
in the shade by the stream I would lie awake and dream,
and in dreaming I would while away the hours.

Long, long gone yesterday,
and the castle and the prince and the God to whom I prayed.
Well, I made, and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses.
I'm tired of trying to be free.

I took a dive into your eyes
and I was in a sea of deep blue green emotion.
Now in my dreams it often seems that you are moving me
like tides moving the ocean.

My heart hears you calling
and I feel that I'm falling
into a love that's deeper than blue,
a bottomless love.
Into the dreamy deep with you.
Bottomless love.

And as we lie I feel that I am floating

I don't believe in superstars,
in fancy food or foreign cars;
that Hagen Dazs and motherhood
have done my body any good;
that Elvis is alive and well;
that courtesy has gone to hell;
that kindness is in short supply;
that little kids should have to die.

But I believe in love.
I believe in dreamers.
I believe in miracles
and I believe in you.

Well, I don't believe virginity

I know these streets and these backyards,
this barn that's falling down.
We come to where they're building now
and ride our bikes around.

And you think I'm just a little kid,
some troubles on the way.
Well, I knew this place before you did
is all I've got to say.

I'm only walking
through these streets and all around.
I'm only walking.
I know this town.

For all I've been blessed with in this life,
there was an emptiness in me.
I was imprisoned by the power of gold.
With one kind touch you set me free.

Let the world stop turning.
Let the sun stop burning.
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart,
I will know deep in my heart
the only dream that mattered had come true:
In this life I was loved by you.

If I close my eyes,
take my time,
I can almost feel your lips against mine.
If I close my eyes,
drift away,
I can almost see us back there smiling.

But it's too late, it's too late.
Baby, I can't reach you.
It's too late, too late.
We've drifted out too far.
I don't know where love goes
or how we might have saved it,
I only know it's gone.
It's time that we moved on.
It's too late.

Let this be the last time.
Let this be the last time, Ooooooh.
Let this be the last time.
Let this be the last time, Ooooooh.

I have no guts. I have no pride.
My heart is weak. My love is blind.
When your game is up I'll still be by your side.
If you love me at all, let this be the last time
that you break my heart,
that you break my heart,
that you break my heart.

You hurt me so much,

Across the bridge of mercy bound,
rooms so full of Say You Will
and trains that rock like cradles in the air.
I'll stay here and hold your hand.
Love likes fools you understand.
It's part of what this life has brought;
sirens and forget-me-nots.

Either way it's no use now.
He's up there and I'm down here.
I will try to make the best of this.
Someday angels will dream the perfect kiss.

You've been down in the dumps
it seems like forever.
Now, what have they done to you?
Not a single thing's turned out
the way you imagined.
It all looks unreachable to you.

You don't know for the life of you
what is missing,
or why it always happens to you.
And you don't like yourself,
you feel nobody's listening.
You don't need another platitude.

For a moment you forget

I see so many golden women;
when they walk their feet don't touch the ground.
How I want, how I want to deserve you.
But me, I'm always out of rhythm.
My needs too demanding, too proud.
How I want, how I want to deserve you.

I didn't want you to see me like this.
The light of the dawn can be cruel.
How I want, how I want to deserve you.
And if I could be granted a wish,
