Black Rose Lyrics - Singles - John Cale

Everybody melting but the heat just won't affect ya 

Backlot Casanovas and Black Russian defectors 

Are here to take your picture away 

I know you don't have space left on your windowsill 

Black rose - long thorn 

White rose - still born 

Standing on the corner just baying at the moon 

Just another little Miss Too-much-far-too-soon 

Dreamstreet romance is not the same as burning love 

You can light a thousand candles, you can wear your satin glove 

And you can dance, dance, dance from here to Sunday 

You can dance, dance, dance from here to Sunday

Black rose - long thorn 

White rose - still born 

Standing on the corner howling at the moon 

Just another Little Miss Too-much-far-too-soon
