Lyrics

I remember when you promised me roses

I recall a promise you made about giving me roses

But all you ever gave me was thorns

Your actions, however, resulted in giving me pain and difficulties

At first I saw the wings of an angel

Initially, I perceived you as an angelic figure with wings

But that was before you grew horns

Over time, that perception changed as you revealed a darker side with horns


You said if you'll just trust me

You assured me that trusting you would lead to new experiences

I'll take you where you've never been

Instead, you guided me down a path of heartbreak

Then you lead down a heartbreak highway

I am not willing to go through that pain again

And I ain't goin' there again


Cause you never came up with the roses

You failed to fulfill your promise of giving roses

Our time has come and gone

Our time together has passed, and it's over

So drop me off where you found me

Return me to the place where you initially found me

And then leave me alone

After that, I want to be left alone


I gave my trust too many times

I trusted you too many times, only to realize everything was a deception

But everything was just a lie

Now it's your turn to hear my farewell

Now it's your turn to listen me

This is my final goodbye

And my last word is good-by


Cause you never came up with the roses

Once again, you didn't deliver on the promise of roses

Our time has come and gone

Our time together has ended definitively

So drop me off where you found me

Return me to where you first found me

And then leave me alone

And let me be on my own


I never should have let you take me

I regret allowing you to take me to unfamiliar and painful places

To a place where I've never been

Now, you can leave, and I don't want your painful experiences

Now you can go, and shove those thorns

Go and keep those thorns away from places where joy exists

Where the sunshine don't get in


Cause you never came up with the roses

Once more, you failed to fulfill the promise of roses

Now our time has come and gone

Our time together has irrevocably passed

So drop me off where you found me

Take me back to where you found me

And then leave me alone

And leave me in solitude

Just drop me off where you found me and then leave me alone

Simply return me to where you found me and let me be alone
