(John David Souther)
|
I don't want you to hold me tight
|
Till you're mine to hold
|
And I don't even want you to stay all night
|
Just until the moon turns cold
|
|
All I need is black roses
|
White rhythm and blues
|
And somebody who cares when you lose
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues
|
|
You say that somebody really loves you
|
You'd find her if you just knew how
|
But honey, everyone in the whole wide world
|
Is probably asleep by now
|
|
And they're dreaming of
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues
|
And somebody who cares when you lose
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues
|
|
Close your eyes
|
Sleep away all your blues
|
I've done everything but lie
|
Now I don't know what else I can do
|
|
Ah, the night time sighs and I hear myself
|
But the words just stick in my throat
|
Would you think that somebody like me
|
Might hurt much more than it shows
|
|
Just send me black roses
|
White rhythm and blues
|
And somebody who cares when you lose
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues
|
Black roses, white rhythm and blues
|
