Stolen Roses Lyrics

There once was a time when I was a girl That darkness hung in my sky I was old before I learned to be young Stone cold 'til I learned how to cry
And the weeds in the ground had grew up through my skin Foresaking a lonesome girl's heart I would go where the stolen roses grow To forget that I had fell apart
The thorns on the roses cut through my skin The vultures flew down and they pecked What lay on the surface was a tiny crack But below was a gigantic wreck
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/stolen-roses-lyrics-karen-elson.html ] And I held my head down and I dealt with the blows In hope that I'd soon be free to Go where the stolen roses grow To forget all the bad memories
I would where the stolen roses grow I would where the stolen roses grow
And the weeds in the ground had grew up through my skin Foresaking a lonesome girl's heart I would go where the stolen roses grow To forget that I had fell apart
I would go where the stolen roses grow To forget that I had fell apart
