Picked from the sky and placed in my hand A rose I will cherish 'til the very end Beauty so perfect yet so delicate I could not resist and I don't understand Mystified our lives perfectly aligned Now I'm searching for a sign A victim to a situation But the fire burns Lighting my soul Is this just a cruel reminder I am torn? Paralyzed from the love we left behind And how we never even tried Even though this rose hurts to hold I just can't let it go Precious thorns wrap my heart of stone And cut me to the bone I can't let it go, I can't let her go Healing from our mistakes The choices we made I hope you'll come back to me someday With my heart on display If I let you slip away it would be a tragedy ♪ Outside your walls Cold, alone (alone) I know you'll grow into the person I've always known I know you'll grow even more beautiful Terrified that the future's undefined Maybe all we need is time Even though this rose hurts to hold I just can't let it go Precious thorns wrap my heart of stone And cut me to the bone I can't let it go I can't let her go (can't let her go) Even though this rose hurts to hold I can't let it go I can't let her go (I can't let her go) (Even though this rose hurts to hold)
