Codeine Velvet Club - The Black Roses lyrics

Please baby, let me sit by your fire I would steal all of the things that you desire Midnight's howl and jukebox love The only things I'm dreaming of Don't misunderstand me when I say I can't hear anything that you're saying Twenty steps to heaven and there you leave me praying I'm really not the kind to be impressed by that Someday soon when your black roses wither You'll remember her and everything you didn't give her And I'll be the one you see when you can't turn back Well, the walls pound and my hands shake in the night My heart freezes in cold wondrous fright 12th street jokes, worn out pride There's nothing much left here to hide I could drown for days on last year's tide I can't hear anything that you're saying Twenty steps to heaven and there you leave me praying I'm really not the kind to be impressed by that Someday soon when your black roses wither You'll remember her and everything you didn't give her And I'll be the one you see when you can't look back I can't hear anything that you're saying Twenty steps to heaven and there you leave me praying I'm really not the kind to be impressed by that Someday soon when your black roses wither You'll remember her and everything you didn't give her And I'll be the one you see when you can't turn back
