Kiss From a Rose Lyrics

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea
You became the light on the dark side of me
Love remains a drug that’s the high and not the pill
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can’t be seen?

[Chorus]
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooo, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain
Baby, to me, you’re like a growing
Addiction that I can’t deny
Won’t you tell me, is that healthy, baby?
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can’t be seen?

[Chorus]

I’ve been kissed by a rose on the grey
I’ve been kissed by a rose on the grey
And if I should fall, will it all go away?
I’ve been kissed by a rose on the grey

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain
Baby, to me, you’re like a growing
Addiction that I can’t deny
Won’t you tell me, is that healthy, baby?
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can’t be seen?

[Chorus x 2]

Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey
