Leaf Without a Rose
It's 2am and the rain is pouring to the beat of my pulse
And I'm waiting for the tension to come and get you
The way I feel after the strike of 12 is always unwhole
And a little background noise comes to the rescue
But this time I'm afraid it's quite different
Cause I'm huddled in a corner and it's intense
Cause you came into my life like the storm that's over me
And to my dismay it seems you left just as quickly
Do you remember when we were 13 and the world was at our feet?
And you broke down all the walls that aligned in front of me
And I can't blame you for how you left me
But I wonder why you came
Cause now I miss the way you were here
But I'm lonely all the same
And now I'm just a leaf without a rose
And I wish I never let you close
And I think about you while the time is froze
Now I'm just a leaf without a rose
It's 3am and I'm wishing I could rewind those years back
To a time when I had very first met you
A simple day without a plan and tons of faces passed
But I never thought that yours would always shine through
But now alas I've found you've gone to bigger better things
And I hope you find a lifeline now that makes your spirit gleam
But still I wish you would've stuck around here longer
Because the walls that you tore down were built back up stronger
Do you remember when we were 14 and you showed me what life is?
And I can't blame you for how you left me
But I wonder why you came
Cause now I miss the way you were here
But I'm lonely all the same
And now I'm just a leaf without a rose
And I wish I never let you close
And I think about you while the time is froze
Now I'm just a leaf without a rose
But now I'm done looking for reasons and regrets
And convincing myself that I should change
And if you ever miss me you can't find me again
Because the leaf turns back to soil when it lays
Do you remember when we were 15 and I learned to live without you?
And I built back up the walls that you managed to sprout through
And I can't blame you for how you left me but I wonder why you came
'Cause now you're just a framed picture I don't have the heart to hang
And now I'm just a leaf without a rose
And I wish I never let you close
And I think about you while the time is froze
Now I'm just a leaf without a rose
And I'm waiting for the tension to come and get you
The way I feel after the strike of 12 is always unwhole
And a little background noise comes to the rescue
But this time I'm afraid it's quite different
Cause I'm huddled in a corner and it's intense
Cause you came into my life like the storm that's over me
And to my dismay it seems you left just as quickly
Do you remember when we were 13 and the world was at our feet?
And you broke down all the walls that aligned in front of me
And I can't blame you for how you left me
But I wonder why you came
Cause now I miss the way you were here
But I'm lonely all the same
And now I'm just a leaf without a rose
And I wish I never let you close
And I think about you while the time is froze
Now I'm just a leaf without a rose
It's 3am and I'm wishing I could rewind those years back
To a time when I had very first met you
A simple day without a plan and tons of faces passed
But I never thought that yours would always shine through
But now alas I've found you've gone to bigger better things
And I hope you find a lifeline now that makes your spirit gleam

'Cause now you're just a framed picture I don't have the heart to hang
And now I'm just a leaf without a rose
And I wish I never let you close
And I think about you while the time is froze
Now I'm just a leaf without a rose
