ROSES IN THE RAIN

In a crowd of millions
someone walks alone
and no one hears
the story of
this life that’s been disowned

Kaleidoscope of faces
passing all the same
with a hungry look
from ragged eyes
he sells roses in the rain

Buy my dreams
roses in the rain
Sell me on love
roses in the rain

Seeing all the couples
lovers hand in hand
is bittersweet
more like a curse
when you’re lonely where you stand

Desire like a drug
is eating through his soul
and he’s craving
what all others have
in a world that leaves him cold

Buy my dreams
roses in the rain
Sell me on love
roses in the rain
