Dew on the Roses
Harry Manx
Make the most of life, they say
'Cause life is short, and slips away
All around us stars will burn
And everyone in their turn
Out where dreams touch the sky
In the morning they're born, by evening they die
Don't you want some place to lay your head
Hold your hands with words instead
Yeah, hardships felt, trouble discloses
Tears fall silently
Like dew on roses
Like dew on roses
Swift feet that fly to some
You only dance when you're sad
Would that the world could know
Yeah, you found some good in the bad
Sized from lovers that you know
Evening tears, you share the low
All around the stars will burn
And everyone in their turn
Yeah, hardships felt, trouble discloses
Tears fall silently
Like dew on roses
Like dew on roses
Like dew on roses
Like dew on roses
