Pam Tillis: "Blue Rose Is" Lyrics

Her lips and her dress 

They're both ruby red 

She thinks that's how you hide 

The pain you feel inside 

And she comes out every night 

To soak-up the neon light 

Her perfume fills the air 

People stop and stare

But Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone's eyes 

Blue Rose is willing to believe in someone's lies 

Blue Rose's pedals have been crushed along the way 

Oh Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday

One more drink, one more dance 

You might be her only chance 

She needs someone to hold 

When the night is growing old 

And if you don't mind the thorns 

She'll take you in and keep you warm 

Lyin' in the dark 

In a bed of broken hearts

But Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone's eyes 

Blue Rose is willing to believe in someone's lies 

Blue Rose's pedals have been crushed along the way 

Oh Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday
