Lyrics

Lavender & Red Roses

Don't say I never warned you
Don't
Don't say I never warned you
Don't

Late at night, devil's eyes
Inner life and inner lies
Is it fate? Is it late?
It's hard to look at you with so much pain

We connect with open hearts, baby
But you still walk towards the dark lately
I've welcomed you with open arms, baby
But you still walk towards the dark lately

Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses
Lavеnder and red roses, yеah
Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses (you still walk towards the dark)

You reveal, your scars heal
Analysing how you feel
Your mistakes, run away
Can't you hear me? Is this promise real?

We connect with open hearts, baby
But you still walk towards the dark lately
I've welcomed you with open arms, baby
But you still walk towards the dark lately

Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses (but you still walk towards the dark)
Lavender and red roses, yeah (the dark)
Lavender and red roses, yeah (the dark)
Lavender and red roses

Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses
Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses, yeah
Lavender and red roses
