Lyrics
White Lies, Red Roses
Curt P. Campbell
Should I have known all along that the roses weren't for me?
It was just your way to justify the lies that I believed.
I thought you might be different from the other men I've known,
but roses aren't the answer to the lies that you have told.
White Lies, Red Roses
Chorus
White Lies, Red Roses.
A common combination, I suppose.
But it won't do for me.
I need love with honesty,
No more lies.
White Lies, Red Roses
Have you ever picked a flower, gently traced its tender bloom,
when the thought of me occurred and your heart leaped to the moon?
Or has every stem and petal that's brought tears into my eyes
really stood for something deeper than my heart could recognize?
White Lies, Red Roses
Bridge
If flowers could work miracles
my love for you might last.
But roses fade and my love has died
and your memory is somewhere in the past.
Chorus
White Lies, Red Roses.
A common combination, I suppose.
But it won't do for me.
I need love with honesty,
No more lies.
White Lies, Red Roses
Tag
But it won't do for me.
I need love with honesty,
No more lies.
White Lies, Red Roses
