Black Rose Of Love

1st VERSE:
My love for her I dared not expose
It was revealed and there grew the Black Rose
They were feelings hidden deep inside my core
And now I find myself not lovin' anymore
What have I done to deserve what I've gotten?
I wish I kept all my feelings just locked in
Yes inside my heart they should have stayed
A fool to reveal them, I was just betrayed

CHORUS:
Black Rose of Love trying to control my heart
Black Rose of Love your tearing my soul apart
Black Rose of Love keeps me from loving you, can't you see
Black Rose of Love your growing deep inside of me

2nd VERSE:
A symbol of love, an emotion of pain
My hot burning tears feed it like the rain
As my mind opens up my thoughts begin to stray
A thousand whispers in my mind wanting her to stay
I begin to think of her as the hours become late
A fool to believe there's a reason to wait
Something in my mind just ain't right
If I'm lucky I'll get some sleep tonight

CHORUS:
Black Rose of Love trying to control my heart
Black Rose of Love your tearing my soul apart
Black Rose of Love keeps me from loving you, can't you see
Black Rose of Love your growing deep inside of me

BRIDGE:
I begin to think of us as the hours become late
A fool to believe there's a reason to wait
Something in my mind just ain't right
If I'm lucky I'll get some sleep tonight

So now I don't know what to do
This Black Rose of Love keeps me from loving you

CHORUS:
Black Rose of Love trying to control my heart
Black Rose of Love your tearing my soul apart
Black Rose of Love keeps me from loving you, can't you see
Black Rose of Love your growing deep inside of me
