Shadow Dancer

Every Rose A Thorn

In those bygone days of yesteryear

I danced each night with my darling dear

Every tune a waltz, every verse a sonnet

Always a rose adorned her bonnet

Together we faced each new day

Overcoming each obstacle in our way

Until the day I stumbled, fell

Now she's with another and I'm in hell
