"Wrapped in Roses and Dreams," A LOVE SONG

VERSE:

Some say we were the lost roses.

We weren't anywhere to be found.

A winding trail of bleeding hearts,

Was all the lay across the ground.     

But nothing could be further from the truth,

You stole my heart, and you can see the proof.

 

CHORUS:                   

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.

I’m ten feet off the ground, and I can’t feel anything.

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams. 

I’m happy as can be, like it’s the first day of Spring.

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.

 

VERSE:

I've once heard a wiseman say:

"Listen to the whisper of the roses.

Everyone else will turn away,

But a rose is a rose—it always is.          

If your tears are today’s heartache,
And your pain is yesterday’s sorrow,
Then your grief will bloom as roses tomorrow."

 

CHORUS:                   

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.

I’m ten feet off the ground, and I can’t feel anything.

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams. 

I’m happy as can be, like it’s the first day of Spring.

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.

 

BRIDGE:                    

I’m no longer someone who’s disheartened,

Because you’re the rose in my garden.

 

CHORUS:                   

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.

I’m ten feet off the ground, and I can’t feel anything.

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams. 

I’m happy as can be, like it’s the first day of Spring.

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.

                                                

VAMP:                                    

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.

You’ve got me wrapped in roses and dreams.
