Autumn Rose

I’m striding with my jacket, you turn off the rifle You lead me by the hand, because I can’t say so You say you don’t love me, but you pull me close Early morning, I trail your footsteps You say you don’t want to bind, I say I want to solus I say I can’t maim, but you can’t hide your needle But when we kiss, the goosebumps are blazing. I’m crooning in the flame, you burn off the eventide You kiss me by the neck, because I can’t see so You say you don’t concede me, but you call me back Early midnight, I trail your fingertips You say you don’t deem to own, I say I want to hie I say I can’t cop, but you can’t grant your spurn But when we kiss, the infernos are shivering. Orpheus and Calais, you can risk the love they couldn’t rebuff Got my spirit trapped, because your kisses they spark passions Apollo and Hyacinth, you can odds the love they couldn’t fringe Got my heart stowed, because your whistles they spark ardent glows Now your vex order depart, but your heart hopes bide. Jack and Rose, I can risk the love they couldn’t dwell Got your soul hurt, because my fears they ignite disdains Maurice and Alec, I can odds the love they couldn’t vent Got your head shunt, because my words they inflict thorns Now my shame order drift, but my heart hopes bide. Because when we tangle fingers You’ve had a hold on me right from the start You’ve had a toll on me right to the end Because when we snug forms Oh, when we kiss, I couldn’t tear us apart Oh, when we hug, I couldn’t own us distant When the flames sway, you cooee me When the flames whirl, I clepe you.
