Pack up the sun and sweep away the stars
And hang a veil over the moon
The cars are parked
Them the bells are ringing out
Just never thought you'd leave so soon
But those white roses are growing round the houses
That you buried under the arches all your life
Will you beg my forgiveness?
Will you be my only witness to this bird in flight?
Over those white, white roses
Those white, white roses
ย
I prayed for you when no-one was listening
I helped you blow your candles out
So, good afternoon
Good evening and good night
I didn't want this day to end
But those white roses are growing around the houses
That you buried under the arches all your life
Will you beg my forgiveness?
Will you be my only witness to this bird in flight?
Over those white, white roses
Those white, white roses
