Look for the Rose

Lovers are blind to the future Open their hearts to be scarred Locked in a scene from an endless dream Never knowing just how near, how far No honour guard will salute ya Banished to roam with the stars There are silent moments When we just don't know where we are This waif called love, (this radiance) Watches the world go around In the deep scented twilight of space and time This wraith called love (forbade us) Laughs as we all fall down Bitter sweet, dented highlights Disgrace and bind Look for the rose when it's gone Now it's fragrance lingers on While the world succumbs to the maze Cherish the rose when it's done Trace its cadence in this song After words, anon, it remains Religion Caught in the sights of the shooter Lessons we just never learn Hands reaching out touch a naked flame So we play with fire, our fingers burn Branded and stoned it refutes ya Those who survive take a turn In the headlights frozen At the sharp end of no return This waif called love, (this radiance) Watches the world go around In the deep scented twilight of space and time This wraith called love (forbade us) Laughs as we all fall down Bitter sweet, dented highlights Disgrace and bind Look for the rose when it's gone Now it's fragrance lingers on While the world succumbs to the maze Cherish the rose when it's done Trace its cadence in this song After words, anon, it remains Religion This waif called love, (this radiance) Watches the world go around In the deep scented twilight of space and time This wraith called love (forbade us) Laughs as we all fall down Bitter sweet, dented highlights Disgrace and bind Look for the rose when it's gone Now it's fragrance lingers on While the world succumbs to the maze Cherish the rose when it's done Trace its cadence in this song After words, anon, it remains Look for the rose when it's gone Now it's fragrance lingers on While the world succumbs to the maze Cherish the rose when it's done Trace its cadence in this song After words, anon, it remains Religion
