Red Wine And Roses

by Dark Angel - Pisces

Romantic rendezvous at our restaurant in town
You dressed in your suit and I in my gown
Deeper into love our two hearts drown
Red wine and roses.

Commitment made with three words uttered
Hearing it escape your lips made my heart flutter
And the touch of your hand calmed me as I shuttered
Red wine and roses.

Daddy cried as he gave his little girl away
While other looked on as I took your name to display
Speaking our vows, I throwing my bouquet
Red wine and roses.

Nightly bursts of drunken rage
Our happy fairy tale story lost a page
Now old and withered, colored with age
Red wine and dead roses.

Planting a kiss on your cold lips
Wishing death weren't in the scripts
Saying good-bye as onto your cheeks my tears drip
Red wine and dead roses.
