As Only We Know

Rose, Rose

Wilted as only we know

Once aglow

Now drooping low

Your heart mine

Forever divine

Eyes lit to shine

The smile meant to blind

Glass shimmer

As your skin glimmers

The sun getting dimmer

As we pick a winner

Love shattered

Like a glass pattern

What you need to earn

Is no one's concern

Rose, Rose

Wilted as only we know

Once aglow

Now drooping low
