Lyrics for Blood And Roses

It was long ago Seems like yesterday Saw you standing in the rain Then I heard you say I want to love, but it comes out wrong (wrong) I want to live, but I don't belong ('long) I close my eyes and I see Blood and roses Love flowers in the springtime October, we were wed In wintertime, the roses died The blood ran cold and then she said I want to love, but it comes out wrong (wrong) I want to live, but I don't belong ('long) I close my eyes and I see Blood and roses It was long ago Seems like yesterday Saw you standing in the rain Then I heard you say I need your love, but it comes out wrong (worng) I try to live, but I don't belong ('long) I close my eyes and I see Blood and roses Blood and roses (roses, roses) Blood and roses (roses, roses) Blood and roses (roses, roses)
