When Gold Melts Away - Sflu Rm

Lovely rose that faded for a long time 
Engulfed the feeling of desolation, 
But only at the shine of precious dime 
That you hear the sound of its affection. 

For, when the day is about to retire,
The somber feeling comes back like echo;
The night takes away your only fire 
And muffles the sound of your loud ego.  

Is it really through the shine of gold
That you hear the caring voice of its love,
That when gold melts away its voice comes cold 
Like a blow of cold wind from up above? 

Will such rose still love you when you got none? 
But, so deep inside you she's only one
