Bed Of Roses Lyrics

I watched the frost claim your touch

A cold bloom on your tender hands

You moved like a ghost through the garden

A fragile breath where the dying stand

Each step a memory I couldn't hold

The thorns carved stories on your skin

As the sun hides from our sin

And I can feel the crystals grow

Where once your warmth would lie beside me

Lay me down in a bed of roses cold and frail

Where our love is frozen

In a grave of roses where lovers lay to die

All that's left of you

Is just a thought of mine

Your eyes were the color of a winter dawn

Pale light breaking through the endless grey

A frail presence of a soul that's withdrawn

I tried to reach you beneath the frozen branches

But the ice was thick and you were drifting farther

I'd offer it all if only death would barter

Still I hear the whispers of your name

In the silence of this cold barren place

Lay me down in a bed of roses cold and frail

Where our love is frozen

In a grave of roses where lovers lay to die

All that's left of you

Is just a thought of mine

The sky grew darker as the roses died

And every promise we made turned brittle in the ice

Your touch was winter a beautiful pain

A kiss that lingered like a scar in my veins

Lay me down in a bed of roses cold and frail

Where our love is frozen

In a grave of roses where lovers lay to die

All that's left of you

Is just a thought of mine

Frozen roses our love is gone

Petals scattered in the cold of a midnight sun

Lay me down where the thorns still grow

In the grave of roses where no life grows
