Claude Kelly Roses lyrics

[Verse 1:]
I was already there
Standing there like a shadow
I was already there
Always ready to catch you
But you never know
How much it hurts
To know that your love
Won't be returned
I was already there
Knowing I'll never have you

[Chorus:]
Cause your love shocks like roses
Beautiful, but when I try to hold it
The thorns cut me every time
Don't know why I even try
Still I can't stop reaching for it

[Verse 2:]
I was already there
Loving you since the first day
I was already there
Still you never looked my way
You've never seen
How long I waited
And how much I dreamed
My life away
Wishing you could be here
But I know it's impossible

[Chorus:]

Cause your love shocks like roses
Beautiful, but when I try to hold it
The thorns cut me every time
Don't know why I even try
Still I can't stop reaching for it

[Bridge:]
While he gets your love everyday
I guess I'll never know when
Love roses

[Chorus:]
Cause your love shocks like roses
Beautiful, but when I try to hold it
Cause your love
Cause your love shocks like roses
Beautiful, but when I try to hold it
The thorns cut me every time
Don't know why I even try
Still I can't stop reaching for it

Roses
Roses
So beautiful
Yeah
But I'll never hold it
Yeah
Yeah
Oh
