You put a rose in my hand
put a dollar in my pocket
but you don't understand
How the days grow longer
the sky is black as night
I see the morning
but you don't see the light
I thought about you
for a long long time
I wrote about you but the
words don't seem to rhyme
And now you're lying
'neath me
But my heart still beats
for you
I had a dream about you you
sat right down beside me
And you told me
we we're through
It was all so real
and you told me reasons why
Brought me to the window
and you taught me how to fly
I thought about you
for a long long time
I said I love you but we
just don't have the time
And now you're lying
'neath me
But my heart still beats
for you
I've thought to hold you
for a long long time
You said I love you but my
heart won't seem to chime
And now you're lying
'neath me
And my heart still beats
for you
Oh I'm trying
and my heart still beats
for you
