Wither Like A Rose

(Josephina Sanner - Klaus Caprani)

You left me out of sight -
Pulled the plug on your love light.
Now I'm trying to come over.
Basic'ly you set me free -
Of your skindeep courtesy.
Now I'm living so much slower.

But I still hear your voice -
I have no other choice.

Your footsteps in the hall -
Echo'ing between the walls.
Of my mem'ry.
The piano is now quiet -
Sounds like emptiness at night.
And I miss you dearly.

But look at me now -
I'll come 'round anyhow.

(But) I'm angry - That you made me so blue
(And) I'm sorry - That I gave you reason to
Could have made it if you chose -
But it withered like a rose.

I will let a candle burn -
Hoping for the tide to turn
(The) River's slowly flowing.
Standing here at the divide -
Watching how the landscapes slide
(I'm) Keepin' you from going

I just stumble like blind -
You are still on my mind

(But) I'm sorry - That you made me so blue
(And) I'm angry - That I gave you reason to
Could have made it if you chose -
But it withered like a rose.

(But) I'm angry - That you made me so blue
(And) I'm sorry - That I gave you reason to
Could have made it if you chose -
But it withered like a rose.
