Painting The Roses Red lyrics
The birds and bees sing
Leaves on the trees swing
All rhyming in natural love
The sweat from my face
Drops like pearls of lace
The sun shines from heaven above
I look through your walls
To the valley that calls
Your garden I wanna tread
I’m down on my knees
In the warm summer breeze
Painting the roses red
At the gates of there
I asked if you’d care
To open and let me in
The air’s filled with warm scents
As I walk through your fence
Your garden’s an untrod thing
The fruits of the vine
They taste so fine
The cherries are juicy red
I’m down on my knees
In the warm summer breeze
Painting the roses red
You gave me your heart
There right from the start
But I must be a travellin on
You knew I was true
When I was with you
But desire’s an unfed tongue
The earth’s sweet and brown
As I bend on down
Been digging the flower beds
I’m down on my knees
In the warm summer breeze
Painting the roses red
You can’t close the gate
I’ve gone it’s too late
I’m holding the only key
There’s so much we learn
As this old world turns
Just walking through flower beds
I’m down on my knees
In the warm summer breeze
Painting the roses red
