It was long ago, it seems like yesterday
I saw you standing in the rain
Then I heard you say
I want to love, but it comes out wrong
I want to live, but I don't belong
I close my eyes and i see blood and roses
Flowers in the springtime
October we were wed
Winter time the roses died
you turned to me and said...
I want to love, but it comes out wrong
I want to live, but I don't belong
I close my eyes and i see blood and roses

I tried to live, but I don't belong
I close my eyes and I see blood and roses
Blood and roses
Blood and roses
Blood and roses
