Plant White Roses
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I poured my heart out,
Blood flowed
I planted you, watered you with tears
And watched you grow
Away from me
So much for my green thumb
I've overstayed my welcome
Plant white roses and plan to cry
If I can't spend my life with you
Plant white roses, I wanna die
If I can't spend my life with you
When you're gone I stumble
And fall
I'm told you don't wanna stay around
Those trains call
You're all I need
But you need more than country songs
You need to be getting along
Plant white roses, I wanna die
If I can't spend my life with you
Plant white roses and plan to cry
If I can't spend my life with you
You'll have to stay,
You'll have to stay and watch them grow
You'll have to stay,
You'll have to stay and watch them grow
You'll have to stay,
You'll have to stay and watch them grow
Plant white roses and plan to cry
If I can't spend my life with you
Plant white roses, I wanna die
If I can't spend my life with you
My life with you
My life with you ..
