She had ribbons ribbons ribbons in her long brown hair.  I don’t know.  Maybe it was the roses. All I know I could not leave her there. I don’t know.  It must have been the roses; the roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair. I don’t know.  Maybe it was the roses.       All I know I could not leave her there. Ten years the waves rolled the ships home from the sea. One pane of glass in the window. I’m thinking well how it may blow in all good company. No one is complaining though.  Come in and shut the door. If I tell another what your own lips told to me Faded is the crimson from the ribbons that she wore let me lay ’neath the roses and my eyes no longer see. and it’s strange how no one comes ’round anymore. Thanks to the original poster. Peace Paul Z

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque une histoire de nostalgie et de tendresse, où le protagoniste se remémore une relation passée marquée par la beauté des roses et des rubans dans les cheveux de celle qu'il aimait. Il exprime une sorte de mélancolie en se demandant si ce qui l’a retenu auprès d’elle était ces simples fleurs ou les souvenirs qu'ils ont partagés. Au fil du temps, il constate également comment la vie continue sans elle, tandis qu'il n’arrive pas à oublier. La mention des vagues et des navires renvoie à un passage du temps, une métaphore de changements inévitables, mais il reste attaché à cette image de beauté et de perte.
