Testo The Rose

Testo The Rose

You're the rose, you're the rose You're the rose that I will dream of You're the rose that takes me home You're the rose, you're the rose You're the calm before the thunder You're the light before the storm The mirror's pictures of the world outside The blackened dust of a land on fire The mother's empty breast denied As she turns to take them home A trail to nowhere is her guiding light Steps to hunger as she moves tonight Dawn will break on a field of sighs As she loses her grip on love Silent cry is a fading dream Humble hope on a global scheme Where life is lost as life is seen From the comfort of our world A million years have passed us by A million tears have asked us why A million fears have gripped her heart As the gift of love is gone Summer's shadows into Winter fade The mirror image of the game we played Another place and another day A people's journey knows no end The pain of hope like the cruel friend She turns her back on the world again And the hope of love is gone
