Color Of Love
Thorns Have Roses
Thorns have roses is about finally seeing the possibilities, beauty, and love that surround us even though they are often not visible if we don't know how to look for them. I wrote the lyric and found myself singing the chorus one day. It stuck and Michael Miller filled in the rest. This is one of my favorites on the CD!
Lyrics
Raised in a bed of negativity
Imitating sorrows done
Bound by a tinted reality
I never saw the promise of the sun
Jaded by the forked tonguev
Crippled by the fear
Thicker than molasses
Love never lived here
But you touched me with your courage
With your confidence and faith
You offered me the rainbow
You circled me with grace
My life was but a shadow
Of the dreams i lived at night
Now i see that thorns have roses
My wings have taken flight
I see that thorns have roses
My wings have taken flight
I am flying by the river
Leading me to open sea
Through the clouds of sweet desire
To the quiet heart of me
It is there that i shall find you
With the smile upon your face
Weaving ginger candied gum drops
Bring cinnamon and lace
Now you touch me with your courage
With your confidence and faith
You offer me the rainbow
You circle me with grace
My life was but a shadow
Of the dreams i lived at night
Now i see that thorns have roses
My wings have taken flight
I see that thorns have roses
My wings have taken flight
