Counting the roses lyrics

I don’t see what I see

Falling away from behind

I’m in a game of hide and seek

Sun shines outside my mind

I wonder if I’m alone

Wonder who might be absurd

I don’t want to raise my eyes

All small, folded up tight

So I count the roses

Yellow, red and white

Don’t dare use my fingers

Many, many roses trap me more at night

Roses weigh and roses wound

They get their rhythm right

I wanna know, white roses know

How they grow smooth and right

So I count the roses

Yellow, red and white

Don’t dare use my fingers

Many, many roses trap me more at night

So I count the roses

Yellow, red and white

Don’t dare use my fingers

Many, many roses trap me more at night
