Like a rose
That's rooted in my heart
So beautiful yet so cold
It's tempting but sharp
Then one day I notice
The petals on the crown
And now
I'm starting to
realize That some things don't work
No matter how hard I try And I fall
asleep the same way every night
Hoping you are
doing
alright And you're with someone who'll hold you close
Keeps it real,
won't let you go Then I'll stand strong as love leaves my eyes
And I won't worry
Cause you found the rose that grows inside
your heart
When it's
time to leave you
Don't know how to go
Cause minutes turn to hours
As our story begins to close
Yet I fall
asleep
the same way every night
Hoping you are doing alright
And you're with someone who'll hold you close
Keeps it real, won't let you go
Then I'll stand strong as love leaves my eyes
And I won't worry Cause you found the rose that grows inside
your heart
And stoke the fire,
the flame will grow
brighter And my heart,
it's out of my control
Must be flawed by design I can't leave my love behind
For you,
I tried
Who knows what would've happened
If things never fell apart
So tender
like the rose you knew
