A Rose Has To Die Lyrics
The Dooleys
Lyrics
Do you remember how we loved last summer,
And how you held me tight and we would dance the night away?
But then the Autumn leaves come down and took away the love we found.
And left me in a lonely world of grey.
'Cause a rose has to die, every time you tell a lie,
a promise once it's given must be true.
Watch each rose bow its head when it knows our love is dead,
and it's never gonna bloom again for you.
On the beach the harbour lights are shining,
And I remember how they used to shine for you and me.
And in the park where roses bloomed and once you whispered I love you.
there's nothing but a weeping willow tree.
'Cause a rose has to die, every time you tell a lie,
a promise once it's given must be true.
Watch each rose bow its head when it knows our love is dead,
and it's never gonna bloom again for you.
Watch each rose bow its head when it knows our love is dead,
and it's never gonna bloom again for you.
Cause a rose has to die, every time you tell a lie
a promise once it's given must be true...
