BLUE ROSE (IS)
(Jan Buckingham / Bob DiPiero / Pam Tillis)

Pam Tillis


Her lips and her dress
They're both ruby red
She thinks that's how you hide
The pain you feel inside
And she comes out every night
To soak-up the neon light
Her perfume fills the air
People stop and stare

But Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone's eyes
Blue Rose is willing to believe in someone's lies
Blue Rose's petals have been crushed along the way
Oh Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday

One more drink, one more dance
You might be her only chance
She needs someone to hold
When the night is growing old
And if you don't mind the thorns
She'll take you in and keep you warm
Lyin' in the dark
In a bed of broken hearts

But Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone's eyes
Blue Rose is willing to believe in someone's lies
Blue Rose's petals have been crushed along the way
Oh Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday
