Scent of a Rose

Life, this endless trip
 Over hills and vales
 It takes us for a walk
 Through a garden divine
 Time, a ticking clock
 Through sorrow and grief
 Can bring us to afford
 A will to make it end
 But then a drapery fell
 And light was revealed
 She removed it all
 And found what was concealed
 We drowned in each other
 With words caught by wind
 And that look in her eyes
 Got closer to me
 Like there was no need for hiding
 'Cause she felt it too
 We had found a beginning
 Now shared by two
 ♪
 Days, as weeks went by
 Yet they stood still
 For every day's the same
 You're the only thing on my mind
 I could lift the mask
 'Cause she saw who I am
 Together we could form
 A kiss beyond heaven
 Rose, I loved you so
 I gave you all that I am
 Stunned by how she loved me too
 She said she's all mine
 We drowned in each other
 Determined to stay
 And that look in my eyes
 Stared back at me
 I would always be standing
 Right there by her side
 Like there was no tomorrow
 I would never leave her behind
 Our hands gently touching our skin
 (A thousand words)
 Floats in the air unspoken
 (This garden divine)
 I shall stay here with you
 ('Til our final days)
 A meaning to life
 Had never felt so true
 ♪
 We drowned in each other
 As I held your hand
 I saw the look in her eyes
 Ceasing to be
 You said you would be standing
 Right there by my side
 It's been fifteen years of empty days
 Since you've been gone
 Gone
