Roses From My Friends Lyrics

I could have treated you better
But you couldn't have treated me worse
But
it's he who laughs last
Is he who cries first
Sometimes I feel I know
strangers
Better than I know my friends
Why must a beginning
Be the
means to an end
The stones from my enemies
These wounds will mend
But
I cannot survive
The roses from my friends
When the last word has been
spoken
And we've beared witness to the final setting sun
All that shall
remain is a token
Of what we've said and done
When all we've had has been
forsaken
Distant church bells no longer ring
That's the sound of a heart
taken
And the story of tears from a king
The stones from my
enemies
These wounds will mend
But I cannot survive
The roses from my
friends
This may be the last time I see you
Forgive me for holding you
close
This may be the last time that I see you
So of this moment I will
make the most
This may be the last time I see you
But if you keep me in
your heart
Together we shall be eternal
If you believe
We shall never
part
The stones from my enemies
These wounds will mend
But I cannot
survive
The roses from my friends
