Anita Lipnicka Rose Lyrics

Rose Lyrics

I put a rose 

Upon your pillow 

Where you rest your hair 

I felt kind of artificial, clumsy 

Putting it right there 



There's a rose 

Upon your pillow 

An open wound painfully sharp 

It's the perfect sign 

You never know how long it's going to last 



Tell me, Will you come back? 

Oh, Dearest, I must go away 

Every time we hold each other 

This could be our final day 



There's a rose 

Upon our pillow 

Staring us in the face 

Telling us to do something 

Before it gets too late 



I stare 

At your pillow 

Where we lay side by side 

Tightly wrapped together 

Safe from the outside 



In the shadows 

Of early morning 

When the village is sound asleep 

In the silence 

Before the birds sing 

I can hear her gently weep
