Darling it’s raining on the roses,
all of our troubles wash away.
Now the smallest touch can take
what I thought was fate, now washes away.
Hey... now it's all gone black,
roses in the rain
I thought we'd make it back,
just not like that
so why do you think I’m blue?
after all that we’ve been through -
Darling please don’t follow
the wilting of bloodless hollows
under the creek I spotted
a severed lily white cloth
hemmed from the finest garment
gosh, is it on a body?
washed in the same water as
our roses in the rain
Oh dear, our love left in the nighttime,
with its tender loving hands
it dissipates our light like greying moon
oh no... oh no...
now all we know will fall below
now all we know will fall below
now all we know will fall below
now all we know will fall below
like roses in the rain
