Excellent The pain of losing love Reflections Of Color : Even The Roses Are Crying by Brett Matthew West

Even The Roses Are Crying I took your love for granted And you along the way What I'd give if we could Go back to yesterday I never heard you leaving Though you said goodbye to me Now, I'm the one who's lonely And I don't want to be Over on the table For all the world to see This 8 X 10 between us is all that's left of you and me I can hang it in the hallway Or burn the roadhouse down I can show it to a stranger And wonder why love can't be found But, when I look into the mirror I see the reason that you're gone Your memory surrounds me And I cry all night long It's a sad day here in Paradise The sun refused to shine It wasn't all that long ago You left my love behind It may be made of silver And it may be made of gold Nothing that I know of is worse Than watching good love turn cold Now, I can't fight this feeling You're always on my mind Love that lasts forever Is so hard to find You told me not to call you Help me to understand I need you here beside me What's this phone doing in my hand The roses in the back yard Turn away in shame Every time they hear me Calling out your name I can't reach out and touch them And they won't let me hold them tight Nothing I can ever do Will ever make things right It breaks my heart but still I know I gotta keep on trying Cause even the roses are crying Yes, even the roses are crying Recognized Author Notes Thanks ROZELLA for the use of your picture. It goes so nicely with my lyrics.
