  • Can I ask you a question please
    Promise you won't laugh at me
    Honestly I'm standing here
    Afraid I'll be betrayed.
    As twisted as it seems, I only fear love when it's in my dreams
    So let in the morning light and let the darkness fade away

    Can you turn my black roses red?
    Can you turn my black roses red?

    Drowning in my loneliness
    How long must I hold my breath
    So much emptiness inside I could fill the deepest sea
    I reach to the sky as the moon looks on
    My one last year has come and gone
    Time to let your love rain down on me

    Can you turn my black roses red? (x3)
    'Cause
    I'm feelin like I'll blame it on love (x6)

    Can you turn my black roses red? (x3)
    'Cause I'm feelin like I'll blame in on love
    I'm feeling like I'll blame it on love (until fades) Writer/s: ALANA ESSIG, JEFFREY COHEN, MICHAEL OCHS
