Black Roses [feat. Clare Bowen] Songtext
von Nashville Cast

I can see your eyes starin′ 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 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 into 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 warnin' sign


I lay low, lay low
And watch the bridges burn

Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble into dust when they′re held
Now you only bring me black roses under your spell

And I'm done tryin′ to be the one
Pickin' up the broken pieces
And I′m done tryin' to be the one
Who says I love you dear, but I'm leavin′

Now you only bring me black roses
And they crumble into 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


Oooohhhh ooooohhh
Ooh ooh ooooohhhhh
