Holding Roses

[Verse 1]
Oh, save me
From such a sad, sad song
Oh, I’m leanin' on a lamppost
Oh, I’m meltin' in the sun
My toes are drippin' through the sewer
I can feel my heart beatin'
As the tears roll down my tongue
And as the nights are gettin' cooler
Never thought that you’d be leavin'
Should’ve known that I’d be wrong

[Chorus]
Oh, goodbye, baby
And the music starts to fade
Oh, goodbye, baby
I really wish you could've stayed

[Verse 2]
Holdin' roses in my hand
Moonlight reflectin' off my tooth
A man will do all that he can
Just to be gettin' over you
And when the sadness lingers
With its hand on my shoulder
Well, you know it’s been there before
And as the wind blows through my fingers
It feels like I’m gettin' older
Every time I turn a door

[Chorus]
Goodbye, baby
And the curtain starts to sway
Oh, goodbye, baby
I really wish you could've stayed

[Outro]
I thought you were my sugar
My honey pie
Oh, you make me wanna cry
