Red Rose
I picked the flower from the bed
Then I watched the beauty fade
Forever lost the innocence
I'm the only one to blame
I didn't mean what I said
Maybe, then, I did
I begged forgiveness from your heart
"It's just you," is all you said
I look back in the past
Reflected in a mirror true
A saddened heart became mine
Because of what I did to you
I didn't mean to make you cry
Even now I don't know why
Why did I shatter this fragile heart
It is my fault that we are apart
I recall the boy I knew
A sweet, loving, caring soul
Now I don't know who you are
A once warm stare has turned cold
I wish I could change things back the way
The way I remember in my head
"I'm so sorry for the pain I caused."
"Oh, it's just you," you said
To this day and the rest of my life
I'll remember what we had
I'll remember what I lost
With this flower in my hand
