Black Roses - Escondido

White dress blows in the wind

And the dust whips up all of those memories of you once again

Oh darling, once again

A silence, a hush so complete

Just the bell of the church ringing out in the street

All for you, oh darling, is it you?

'Cause all the black roses speak of you

'Cause all the black roses speak of you

When a whisper still floats around

All the heads are hung low and my friends are nowhere to be found

Oh darling, is it you?

To be young, to be just at the start

When all that you know is a longing to lay down your heart

Oh darling, it was you

'Cause all the black roses speak of you

All the black roses speak of you

'Cause all the black roses speak of you

All the black roses speak of you

Speak of you

Speak of you
