Fading Rose

in times so uncertain

the day's fallen so dark

and the joys I cannot remember

it's falling apart

you gave me the strength to go on

but the shadows are growing

on the hill the gallows are swinging

in the wind, in the wind

I float on a river tonight

a river of tears you have cried

I'll give you my heart though it's broken

for the one last dance

in the sun, in the sun

but I cannot see

the fading rose

now the tree has withered

and every mornings cold

there's a road ahead of me

but I cannot go

the light looks so pale

promises few

on the hill angels are singing

in the wind, in the wind

the light looks so pale

and dark is the day

and I cannot see

and all of our hopes has been shattered

the river runs wild

I'll give you my heart though it's broken

for the one last dance

in the sun, in the sun

but I cannot see

the fading rose
