rosanne cash – roses in the fire lyrics
(rosanne cash)
i throw your roses in the fire
to make the flames a little higher
i watch your roses turn to dust
i know no man that i can trust
i throw your roses in the fire
’cause i burn up with pity and desire
i’ll be your vision dressed in black
who won’t be back
another woman’s on the phone
pick it up
tell her you’re home
i see your face turn into broken gl-ss
talking slow
thinking fast
i throw your roses in the fire
no one could say i didn’t try
i watch your roses fall like tears
i’ve crawled this path for all these years
i throw your roses in the fire
to burn away the old desire
we were a desperate pair of souls
so let me go
another woman has her point of view
let her talk
now that we’re through
i see your face retreat behind the gl-ss
listening slow
sinking fast
oh i’ll kill you if we can’t be friends
i’ll bleed like diamonds running through your hands
i’ll be a bitter taste you can’t forget
and i won’t leave this world until you relent
i throw your roses in the fire
to burn away the old desire
i watch your roses turn to dust
i know no man that i can trust
i throw your roses in the fire
to make the flames a little higher
i’ll be your vision dressed in black
who won’t be back
i won’t be back
i won’t be back
