Rings and Roses
Are there rings around your roses
Where you've held for such a time
Did you finally start to notice
They were wilting in their prime
Could you count which feelings linger
On a stem that's clearly worn
Is it worth another finger
Wrapped around another thorn
If a draft came through this evening
And our petals hit the floor
Would it be enough to leave then
Or would you miss it all the more oh
In the morning we are faded
Did you ever wonder why
Or how different if we'd waited
Or we'd ever really tried
What's a garden to a mountain
What's a mountain to a hare
If you never think about it
Was it ever really there
Are there rings around your roses
And again around your eyes
It's so easy not to notice
'Till it's time to say goodbye oh
Where you've held for such a time
Did you finally start to notice
They were wilting in their prime
Could you count which feelings linger
On a stem that's clearly worn
Is it worth another finger
Wrapped around another thorn
If a draft came through this evening
And our petals hit the floor
Would it be enough to leave then
Or would you miss it all the more oh
In the morning we are faded
Did you ever wonder why
Or how different if we'd waited
Or we'd ever really tried
What's a garden to a mountain
What's a mountain to a hare
If you never think about it
Was it ever really there
Are there rings around your roses
And again around your eyes
It's so easy not to notice
'Till it's time to say goodbye oh
