One Single Rose

from Leaving West by Terry Lee Hale

/

lyrics

ONE SINGLE ROSE

ONE CALENDAR PAGE, TOO MANY DAYS
THIS IS BORDERLINE INSANITY
TO BEND MY KNEES AND HAVE TO WAIT
BUT I’LL TRY TO LAUGH AS I WIPE MY EYES
AND TRY TO REMEMBER SOME INNOCENCE
AND WONDER IF THIS LIFE WILL BE KIND

FORGET ABOUT THE RUNNING
FORGET ABOUT THE DEVIL’S CURSE
I NEVER SAW THIS COMING
NO TIME TO STEAL AWAY OR WORSE
SO I AM FORTUNATE BUT I AM STUNNED
SOMETIMES DRAWING BLANKS JUST LIKE A CHILD
CONFRONTED WITH STUPID ADULT QUESTIONS

SILENTLY I CLIMB, STRAIGHT TO THE TOP
WHERE I’LL CATCH MY BREATH AND TRY TO SEE
YOU CAN WATCH BUT I WON'T FALL
IT’S ONE SINGLE ROSE, GROWING IN THIS GARDEN
WAITING I HOPE AND FASCINATED ENOUGH
TO SEE AND LOVE

(EGBGBE) CAPO7
