[Verse] I try not to cry at the movies I try not to cry at your name You and I were only for a moment Now my moment's come again [Chorus] Like roses Like roses Like roses You left me with a bouquet of roses And it's thorny and it's broken and it hurts But I'm learnin' how to hold it Hold it You left me with a bouquet of roses And it's thorny and it's broken and it hurts But I'm learnin' how to hold it Hold it [Verse 2] I don't think that we were a mistake I don't think that you could be replaced I just think you needed somethin' different I just think that I needed some space [Chorus] Like roses Like roses Like roses You left me with a bouquet of roses And it's thorny and it's broken and it hurts But I'm learnin' how to hold it Hold it You left me with a bouquet of roses And it's thorny and it's broken and it hurts But I'm learnin' how to hold it Hold it [Bridge] Every plane Every train All the highways All the mistakes That I made Tryin' to keep you And the roses you left Were the last gift you gave me And they're broken But I'm learnin' to hold them And you love me But you're learnin' to love her So I hope that she knows that you deserve it And I hope that she knows [Chorus] Like roses Like roses Like roses You left me with a bouquet of roses And it's thorny and it's broken and it hurts But I'm learnin' how to hold it Hold it You left me with a bouquet of roses And it's thorny and it's broken and it hurts But I'm learnin' how to hold it Hold it
