Lyrics :
Precious things soon get lost
Up on the tracks when two paths cross
The lover i had is with another today
Tomorrow came when she went away
She was a diamond in the vein
A crimson flower in the brain
I picked my rose for the thorns
And hearts get so easily torn
I picked my rose for the thorns
And lives get so easily torn
The years have come the years will go
And then with time the years will show
I was too young then i'm too old now
Oh what i'd give to have them back somehow
She was a diamond in the vein
A crimson flower in the brain
I picked my rose for the thorns
And lives get so easily torn
I picked my rose for the thorns
I know hearts get so easily torn
The poison hit me like a shot
I knew grace until it stopped
Roses bloom before they fade
Who loves the needle loves the shade
She was a diamond in the vein
A crimson flower in the brain
But i picked my rose for the thorns
And hearts get so easily torn
I picked my rose for the thorns
I know lives get so easily torn
Precious things soon get lost
Up on the tracks when two paths cross
The lover i had is with another today
Tomorrow came when she went away
She was a diamond in the vein
A crimson flower in the brain
I picked my rose for the thorns
And hearts get so easily torn
I picked my rose for the thorns
And lives get so easily torn
The years have come the years will go
And then with time the years will show
I was too young then i'm too old now
Oh what i'd give to have them back somehow
She was a diamond in the vein
A crimson flower in the brain
I picked my rose for the thorns
And lives get so easily torn
I picked my rose for the thorns
I know hearts get so easily torn
The poison hit me like a shot
I knew grace until it stopped
Roses bloom before they fade
Who loves the needle loves the shade
She was a diamond in the vein
A crimson flower in the brain
But i picked my rose for the thorns
And hearts get so easily torn
I picked my rose for the thorns
I know lives get so easily torn

Piers Faccini France
If my songs were maps I'd want them to stretch from the English moors to the Saharan dunes via the plains of the Mediterranean.
