As I lie awake in my room
I pull out a rose that is red and gloom
I prick my finger on the thorn
And suck the blood out
While I mourn...
I take a petal from the efflorescence
And it disappears like evanescence
Right now I love you, but it is still undefined
For there are enough petals to change my mind
I take another from the flower, I love you not?
This goes on for an hour of torment
Finally one last left...
What will happen, what will I get?
I pull it out and I found my answer
I will love you forever more and forever after
Now I lay on my bed as I settle
And I thank God for that single rose petal
