"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 in 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 is a rose is.          

And if your tears are the heartache of today,

And your pain is the tragedy of yesterday,

Your sorrows are the roses of 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 in 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 in 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.
