Donnie Munro - You're The Rose lyrics

You're the rose, you're the rose You're the rose that I will dream of You're the rose that takes me home You're the rose, you're the rose You're the calm before the thunder You're the light before the storm The mirror's pictures of the world outside The blackened dust of a land on fire The mother's empty breast denied As she turns to take them home A trail to nowhere is her guiding light Steps to hunger as she moves tonight Dawn will break on a field of sighs As she loses her grip on love Silent cry is a fading dream Humble hope on a global scheme Where life is lost as life is seen From the comfort of our world
