I don’t want you to hold me tight Till you’re mine to hold And I don’t even want you to stay all night Just untill the moon turns cold All I need is black roses white rhythm and blues And somebody who cares when you lose Black roses white rhythm and blues You say that somebody really loves you You’d find her if you just knew how But honey everyone is the whole wide world Is probably asleep by now And they’re dreaming of black roses white rhythm and blues And somebody who cares when you lose Black roses white rhythm and blues Close your eyes sleep away all your blues I’ve done everything but lie Now I don’t know what else I can do SOLO As the night time sighs and I hear myself But the words just stick in my throat Would you believe that somebody like me Might have hurt much more than it shows Just send me black roses white rhythm and blues And somebody who cares when you lose Black roses white rhythm and blues
