Paroles de The Rose

In mother earth's garden A flower was growing Her blossoms as red as the love in her soul But along came a Daisy with a heart of fool's gold And petals as white as a lie could be told The Daisy was parched He begged her for drink He wept and he groveled right there at her feet The flower obliged with a soft-hearted grin She bent her own stem to give nectar to him If only she noticed how deeply he drank The Daisy grew taller while she only sank He spread out his leaves and he beckoned the shade A cover so thick no light could penetrate She pleaded with him He ignored all her cries He stood like a tower his head held so high The flower was stunned, she was spurned and betrayed Alone in the darkness, she flew in a rage She hardened her skin and grew out her thorns So no other Daisy could hurt her anymore But she kept her blush red to this very day So she'd never forget all the love she misplaced So the next time you see Daisies in bloom Don't stop for a gander just keep walking through (keep walking through) And the next time you see a Rose of red stain Just know that her beauty was not without pain
