Roses in the Concrete

Oh, I've been walking down this party street forever Trying hard just to find some peace of mind You know I've been hiding in the alleys trying not to Catch a glimpse of your stone cold Medusa eyes You know they say what's worn it can't be used again, no But I'm holding on to second-hand Levi's And if it all could feel like scratching worn out denim I would kiss you freely, open up my eyes We were young and we were free Dancing to a different beat Like roses in the concrete Whoa, like roses in the concrete Pour some water on the scenes of youth Even though it may seem that you've been doing it in vain Yeah, we have walked these barren lands And still we rose Like a rosebud in the fire through the pain We were young and we were free Dancing to a different beat Like roses in the concrete This kind of love was never seen So we grow right in between Like roses in the concrete Whoa, like roses in the concrete I hear the echoes of the angels All the stars are on the ground See people smiling through the windows Winds of change is going down Don't tell me that I cannot do it I will stand and hold my ground Through the winter and the summer I will grow all year around 'Cause we are young and we were free Dancing to a different beat Like roses in the concrete This kind of love was never seen So we grow right in between Like roses in the concrete Whoa, like roses in the concrete Whoa, like roses in the concrete Whoa, like roses in the concrete Oh, like roses in the concrete
