Band Bio home News Pictures Links Three Shots Gone Lyrics Black Roses
(originally by Inner Circle)Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so longWhen I was a boy I planted a garden yeah
That meant so much to me, one of reality
A garden of love none like this before me
One of a kind equality, a prayer for you and me wo ho ho ho hoWhatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong…If we can keep the candles burning
To shelter them from pain and let them live again
Shower the world with their innocence
Whose tears felt like rain, history remains the same wo ho ho ho hoBut one by one they come up missing
Strangers thought, strangers thought I was stealing...
Some life, some life means nothing to some people
Watch out now we've got them on the run, on the run…Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong…
Tell me, whatever happened to my garden of black roses
Will someone help me sing this song; I haven’t seen them for so long…Ohh ohh..
So long, my black roses, where have you been, will someone say, my, my black roses… night and day, I hear the children cry and they say…(RAP)
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Way deep down in this earth there's something it proposes.
One earth we have here united as one,
So I can smile down when this life is done,
My only salvation, so I pray everyday,
But my black roses they wilter, and some fade away,
And I watch, and I pray, I pray for a change,
as God's looking down I feel so ashamed.
Won't anyone help me to sing my song?
My black roses, I haven't seen them for so long,
But they'll grow back,
One day when I'm dead and gone,
But for now I just say , "Dee sing your song...."Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long, so long
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong…
Tell me, whatever happened to my garden of black roses
Will someone help me sing this song; I haven’t seen them for so long…
