The Way of The Rose Lyrics

Come back to me
The flowers are dying, you see
Mystery
All turn and leave silently

You never told me the end of the story

Rest me now
Pray for the morning
Show me how to suffer the mourning

You never told me the end of the story
Where are you going?
You never told me

Nine-and-thirty beats the daylights out of me
Three, Seven, Nine*
All fall down another time on the Way of the Rose

You never told me the end of the story
Along the Way of the Rose

Wipe clean the brow
Cry for yourselves and for your children
Autumn comes, a symptom of the times
Watch the flowers die

You never told me the end of the story
Along the Way of the Rose
