Kiss from a Rose
Triniti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You became the light on the dark side of me
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill
Did you know that when it snows my eyes become
Large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you the stranger it feels, yeah
A light hits the gloom on the gray
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 it healthy, babe?
Did you know that when it snows my eyes become
Large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is, is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
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 it healthy, babe?
Did you know that when it snows my eyes become
Large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is, is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
Now that your rose is, is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
