Blinded By the Rose
I saw her lips smile at me
She held me in her glance
She was a rose among the weeds
No one could break the trance
If I'd seen beyond the blossoms
Then I'd have turned away
Before the waiting thorn
Had found it's prey
Chorus
I was blinded by the rose till it was much too late
I didn't know a heart pierced by a thorn was to be my fate
Till she left me among the wounded with a pain that grows and grows
I didn't see the thorn, I was blinded by the rose
I stand alone and unprepared
It happened oh so fast
She took all she wanted
And left me in her past
The dream girl left the dreamer
But should I be surprized
My foolish heart was led
By blinded eyes
Chorus
I didn't see the thorn, I was blinded by the rose
