Verse 1:
Tell you a story
Of a love I left behind
It was a broken fairytale
I gave up all my pride
Let love inside
But it tore me apart
When you played with my heart
Let me paint a picture
Of a cold and rainy night
As the candles fade to black
I played our favorite song
"Til the needle was gone
I've taken all I can
You played your last hand
Black roses and a bottle of wine
Those were the only things that I left behind
Keep searchin' cause it's so hard to find
All you've got, are the tears, that ya cry
Black roses and wine
Sorry situation
When your castle's made out of sand
And it washes out to sea
I pushed your love aside
Cried my last cry
My soul is in bloom
Like flowers in June
You don't miss your water
'Til your well runs dry
You don't miss your good thing
'Til it passes you by
Like a bird in the sky
Spread your wings and fly
