Twelve red roses, all in a vase
Our lives sewn together makes our hearts race.
So happy together, so in love we are
And we promise each other, we'll take this so far.
With my hand in yours, and your hand in mine
A slight pull away will be the first sign
Twelve red roses, all in a vase
You're wishing me luck, cause you're needing your space.
"I'll be fine without you, and you'll do good too"
And as you spoke to me, listening was all I could do.
So I left you heartbroken, and you left me heart-free
And I buried my pain, so you wouldn't see.
Twelve red roses, all in a vase
I'm calling you again, but you're gone without trace
No answer to calls, and ignoring my written word
So our petty final goodbye is the last that I heard.
I stare into my phone, the past looks back with a smile
But I put it away now, because I've missed you all this while.
Twelve red roses, tight in my grip
Blood pools on my wrist, and then starts to drip
I'm over you now, that's my new game
And we're talking again, but it's not quite the same.
I'll play along for now, and I'll pretend I'm alright
Because if I can just hang on, I'm willing to fight.
Twelve red roses, all in the trash
And pardon me please, if I seem a little brash
I'm seeing it now, that our love was a lie
And I wasted my time, with how hard I would try.
So if you needed your space, I'll give you it all
And I promise to be there, the next time you fall
Because back at the start, when I said that I loved you
I said that I'd be there, and today that is still true
You can do as you please, And I hope you do well
But you'll never find love like mine.
I know.
I can tell.
