janis ian – blood red rose lyrics
[verse 1]
in the hour before sunrise
when the shadows hustle home
and the owls dream of daybreak
and the redwoods softly moan
i have often begged for magic
to bring my true love home
[refrain]
but the sunrise only shows
how well my garden grows
in the heat of a single blood+red rose
[verse 2]
these eyes, no good for darkness
rely upon the tenderness
of shadows for their passion
and the branches slowly twist
tangled promise with a kiss
only lovers can imagine
i have often begged for morning
confessing all she knows
[refrain]
but the sunrise shows
how well my garden grows
in the heat of a blood+red rose
[verse 3]
in the hours of my morning
in the vision of the light
lay the afternoon and evening
and a promise of the night
i have often begged for darkness
to still these trembling hands
[refrain]
but the sunrise shows
how well my garden grows
in the heat of the blood+red sand
