They Waved As You Rose.

kevin browne

Allow the vermin to bite you if you can
Let the angels sing as you die a young man
Convince the Vicar to rule out on the knee
Paint the skies blue and the beauty you see.

Follow in the footsteps of someone lost
Lead the way into bliss and a love's loss
Try not to hurt anyone or any heartaches
Begin to work out life and do what it takes.

Shovel up those ingredients you dropped
Pick up leaves on the lawn, the rain stops
Feel free to say whatever you want to say
Trapped inside emotions every single day.

Let go of the flowing river, hold onto new
Tighten the grip in your hand, a love true
Showing some resilience, try to hold on
Let go of the past when it all went wrong.

Mix it around a bit more, make love last
Rember good memories from an old past
Throw away the trash and clean up a mess
Stick your tongue out and it's time for a test.

Pull back the curtain, pull out your dreams
Fit in the parts missing if that's what I mean
Teary-eyed drops glisten in a sad harmony
Played in a soulful place just for you and me.

One of those days when nobody listens
Two of those days everyone is missing
Bring in yourself the meaning you will be
Take off the heartaches and mind to see.

To bypass the devil and work on Heaven
I'll meet you there, I'll be in room No 7
Show signs in your dead strengths love
We'll be thinking about you way up above.

And if you can make it, you'll make it here
When you said goodbye to every poor dear
They waved as you rose way up in the sky
You left us behind to whimper, tear and cry.

So, cradle up my loves, sleep in tight
Dream those dreams and make right
And sleep deep in thought in knowing
That a rose in your heart keeps growing.
