A Rose In Bloom
Lyrics by Steven R. Drennon, ©️ 1983 - 2025 Please check out my YouTube channel if you get a chance: https://www.youtube.com/@firstep3 [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I’ll never walk this path again To smell the roses, fragrant sweet. Their petals with their memories, Lie trampled now beneath my feet. [Verse 2] I grew the roses just for you. Their beauty always made you smile, And yet their beauty, like your love, Was mine for such a little while. [Chorus] A rose in bloom cries out to me, And wakens your sad memory. Their petals fall, just like my tears, As love has faded through the years. I planted them with love so true, And now they make me think of you. A rose in bloom, a lovely sight, But it can’t bring you back tonight. [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 3] I’ve lost all hope since you’ve been gone. I’m like a large and empty room, And I can’t help but shed a tear Each time I see a rose in bloom. [Chorus] A rose in bloom cries out to me, And wakens your sad memory. Their petals fall, just like my tears, As love has faded through the years. I planted them with love so true, And now they make me think of you. A rose in bloom, a lovely sight, But it can’t bring you back tonight. [Instrumental Interlude] [Chorus] A rose in bloom cries out to me, And wakens your sad memory. Their petals fall, just like my tears, As love has faded through the years. I planted them with love so true, And now they make me think of you. A rose in bloom, a lovely sight, But it can’t bring you back tonight. [Instrumental Outro]

Very evocative lyrics, man. I love the latent metaphors. I'm also a sucker for tragedy, so the subject matter really appeals. Always love to hear how you play with genres as well.

Nice change up in genre. The quality lyrics flow with a story line that feeds the emotion. I can sink down in my comfy chair and listen over and over. Good job.

Thanks, that really means a lot to me. I actually tried several versions of this as a country song, but nothing really felt right to me. I like how this one turned out, and I've been surprised by how much attention it seems to be getting.
