Once - I was a rose for your heart
Once - I was your rose
Today I'm a thorn
When you look at me
I'm not a woman anymore
God gives it to me
God takes away from me
Once I was a rose but not anymore
From time to time it seems as if I could still hear you
Walking through my door
My dear
From time to time, although I know I don't have the right
Because I'm not yours anymore
And on my roof comes the nest back to live
The children came back home
And I was dreaming that just like them
You'll come back too, my dear
God gives it to me
God takes away from me
Once I was a rose but not anymore
From time to time it seems as if I could still hear you
Walking through my door
My dear
From time to time, although I know I don't have the right
Because I'm not yours anymore
From time to time it seems as if I could still hear you
Walking through my door
My dear
From time to time, although I know I don't have the right
Because I'm not yours anymore
Once I was a rose but not anymore
