Its taste was sweet like summer wine   The heart that beats in double time   So he waltzed right in and bowled you over   And you're still reeling from the feeling when he's gone   The door is closed the lock is turned   And all the memories and letters have been burned      Chorus      So when you pick the handsome flower   Don't forget the thron upon the rose   It's cut is deep and the scar lasts forever   It follows love whereever love goes      Just how we fall it's hard to know   When what we feel we seldom show   So we show the parts we feel are best   We squirm around the edges trying to cover up the rest   And you think you know him and he thinks the same   When underneath it all it's just a crazy guessing game      Chorus      Win or lose it's just the same   Tears of joy tears of pain   They're hand in hand they come as one   You'll never see the moon without the promise of the sun   For all the bruises for all the blows   I'd rather feel the thorn than to never see the rose      Chorus...
