Black Roses (feat. Clare Bowen & Lucy Schwartz) [Live] Songtext
von Nashville Cast

I can see your eyes staring into mine.
But it′s a battlefield
and you're on the other side
You can throw your words sharper than a knife
And leave me cold
in another house on fire

I lay low, lay low
and I watch the bridges burn
I lay low, lay low
What more could I have done?

Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble in the dust when they′re held.
Now you only bring me black roses
Under your spell.


She told me twice, all her good advice
But I couldn't see
I was clouded by your lies
Up in smoke, a vision she foretold
She said stay away
'cause that boy′s a warning sign.

I lay low, lay low,
and watch the bridges burn

Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble in the dust when they′re held
Now you only bring me black roses
Under your spell.

And I'm done try′na be the one
Picking up the broken pieces
And I'm done try′na be the one
Who says I love you dear
But I'm leaving

Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble in the dust when they′re held
Now you only bring me black roses
But I'm not under your spell
I'm not under your spell

I′m not under your spell
I′m not under your spell
I'm not under your spell


Oooooooh, oooh...
