Last Rose In Eden:

I wrote this song today, as a way of letting go. Of all the songs I've written this is my favourite. But then it is the last one I've written, so I may just be getting better at this. It's dedicated to M- always and in all ways ~ SRF

The Last Rose In Eden:

When you left i was stressed but had a plan
but the radio sings love lost
now i finally understand
You smile and turn away it breaks my heart
the love in your eyes is faded
now when I’m just about to start
To live again and how I wish for time
When you saw me and called my name
This time I would give it all away
In the garden

I felt the winter long before the fall
Now In your eyes is emptiness
or you don’t even call at all
my heart breaks over and over like waves
on walls around your heart of stone
to have your love for one more day
give me a chance

Chorus:
this is my heart in the dead of night / still longing for your sunlight, / I miss you like the dying cry / of the last rose in eden /praying for another day / so we can dance again into dawn

Not long ago a billion flowers bloomed
I remember a moonlight night
I hoped for love, a single bloom
You showed me a world without storms
love so rare in a maze of thorns
you gave a garden of delight
Now i hold petals of a single rose
The thorns are real, the bloom is gone
so fragile in my shaking hands
and so it goes

I’m so sorry if my words brought you low
Afraid to fly I didn’t know
How to take your hand and let go
I wanted to rise with you and soar
Instead I waited on my fears
but you’re gone, I’ll fly no more
the garden dies

CHORUS

turning, you rise into the air and fly
a perfect sky fades out to gray
now that you are gone and far away
When you came into me i couldn’t breathe
A child being born can’t see
like coming home, like being free
Sorry for letting time elude my grasp
and for letting ghosts from the past
stalk our days and nights in paradise
love forgive me

CHORUS
