Bob Geldof - A Rose At Night Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Here she comes like a Queen all through the wintertime
  • Skirts that billow long after she's gone
  • Yes I could smell her smell on the pillow late at night
  • She's a rose that blooms at night
  • And all the streets were wet and slicked with rain
  • Outside my green front door
  • Number 48 seemed dull by comparison
  • I went on down to the pub to stock up for the long night by myself
  • That's one way out of this cold and lonely world
  • Yes I'll be a rose that blooms tonight
  • The city's quiet
  • The rioters have all gone home now
  • The fire brigades' sirens have been locked up for the night
  • There's a blackout down on Brown Street
  • Where all the blues come home
  • And yes there's a rose that blooms at night
  • Now Jim he packed up all his bags and said
  • "It's time to get out of here"
  • But his wife and children they were crying out in the kitchen
  • Out in the back
  • Once a year he remembers that scene
  • But it seems so long ago now
  • He tries to remember but he can't
  • You don't look back
  • Memories - they're like a rose that blooms at night
  • There's a clock that never strikes
  • In the Town Hall's towers of steel
  • There's a road that's never used
  • It's never kissed with the hiss of wheel
  • In your mouth is a rusted brace
  • That you flash with your junkyard smile
  • Shine on like a rose at night
  • *written by Bob Geldof
  • *taken from the album "The Vegetarians of Love"
