Adams, Ryan - Cold Roses Lyrics






The mirrors in the room go black and blue
On a Sunday morning in her Saturday shoes
We don't choose who we love
We don't choose

The lights over the Midway melt on the street
In a Sunday shoes, with her Saturday feet
She don't love who he choose
She don't need what she use

Daylight comes and exposes
Saturday's bruises and cold roses
Cold roses

Nothing but the sunlight will help you grow
From underneath your bed you can't see the window
We don't choose what we see
We don't choose

Fortunate and angry just like a child
All that money buys you medicine but can't buy you time
We don't choose what we love
And she don't need what she got

Daylight comes and exposes
Saturday's bruises and cold roses
Cold roses

Cold roses
Cold roses
Cold roses

    He was so great... what happened?

    D.... P....

    I would be really happy if it was only that...

    D.... P....

    You're probably correct. No one else can tell whats going on in your life.

    D.... P....

    his recent stuff is musically less interesting than this, it's content derives from the attitude he puts on it

    but even here, i.e. listen to his voice and artificial draw, he's play-acting a character

    D.... P....

    John Andrew O'Keefe's he got better :)

    D.... P....

    he got married...

  13. S.... ....

    I know a lot of people won't like to agree, but I do hear a Grateful Dead influence. Hell, I can even see it in the album art. I like it though.

    S.... ....

    You should just start calling this album a tribute to the GD. And drugs, but still.

    S.... ....

    SonoranSweetheart I definitely agree w that and I grew up in a family of avid gd and Ryan Adam listeners. There's no denying he was influenced by them, which in no way should be viewed as a bad thing!!!

    S.... ....

    He wrote the song rosrbud about Jerry's guitar influencing him and how in awe grateful dead music made him

  14. W.... ....

    Leon Russell?? How about the Grateful Dead?? A tribute to Jerry Garcia. 

    W.... ....

    eat my jerry

  15. P.... C....

    Fuck Yes - I've seen the cold roses on too many of my friends.

    b.... d....

    sorry for my ignorance ... but do you mean 'bruises'?

    b.... d....

    coz in the lyrics he actually says "... saturday's bruises and cold roses"

  17. J.... ....
