If Roses Could Talk
If Roses Could Talk
If Roses could talk
They will tell you the deepest thoughts
Of the secrets of my heart of hearts
Deepest thoughts of my unspoken words
Unspoken words of my deepest feelings
Deepest feelings that words cannot express
Words from the flames of my spirit
As I saw you coming for our tryst
Our secret tryst under the African Cypress
I clutched my new bouquet of red Roses
Red Roses of the petals of my heart.
If only these Roses could talk
Only these Roses can tell you
How much I have prayed for our dreams to come true.
