Black Rose John Cale

[Verse 1]
Everybody melting but the heat just won't affect you
Backlot Casanovas and black Russian defectors
Are here to take your picture away
I know you don't have space left on your windowsill

[Chorus]
Black rose, long thorn, white rose, stillborn
Black rose, long thorn, white rose, stillborn
Standing on the corner just baying at the moon
Just another Little Miss Too-much-far-too-soon

[Verse 2]
Dream Street 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

[Chorus]
Black rose, long thorn, white rose, stillborn
Standing on the corner howling at the moon
Just another Little Miss Too-much-far-too-soon
Standing on the corner howling at the moon

[Outro]
Standing on the corner howling at the moon
Just another Little Miss Too-much-far-too-soon
Standing on the corner howling at the moon
Just another Little Miss Too-much-far-too-soon
