The Scarlet Rose

I feel the moonlight painting your skin
This is the moment the magic begins
Hiding away from the rushing crowd
Saying the things that we never say loud
Dust on the dashboard, a long dirt road
Taking you back to the place we know
Candles are lit on the window sill
Making the world stand perfectly still
Every breath is pulling me close
You are the poison, you are the dose
Tracing the lines on the palm of your hand
Leading me into a promised land
You are the scarlet rose I want to keep
Planting your roots in my soul so deep
Falling so hard for the way that you sway
Taking my every defense away
Oh, my beautiful scarlet rose
Watch how the delicate blossom grows
Two little glasses of sweet red wine
Feeling your fingers tangled in mine
Shadows are playing across your face
Wrapped in the warmth of this quiet embrace
Every breath is pulling me close
You are the poison, you are the dose
Tracing the lines on the palm of your hand
Leading me into a promised land
You are the scarlet rose I want to keep
Planting your roots in my soul so deep
Falling so hard for the way that you sway
Taking my every defense away
Oh, my beautiful scarlet rose
Watch how the delicate blossom grows
You are the scarlet rose in the night
Turning the darkness completely to light
Skin against skin, we are losing control
Giving you all of my body and soul
Sayed is craving the taste of your lips
Swaying along to the move of your hips
I never want to leave this room
Just let the scarlet rose bloom
You are the scarlet rose I want to keep
Planting your roots in my soul so deep
Falling so hard for the way that you sway
Taking my every defense away
