Ballad of a Black Rose
To be beautiful and deadly,
A somber and sweet duet,
Unstable and unsteady,
A song you shan't soon forget,
It follows you like a shadow,
And haunts you in your dreams,
Yet so appealing is the night,
A black rose beckons you,
The petals like velvet,
In full bloom toward moonlight,
Hiding thorns beneath green leaves,
As if they're some unfriendly sight,
It follows you like a shadow,
And haunts you in your dreams,
Yet so appealing is the night,
A black rose beckons you,
Affection is not always red,
Sometimes it's better to be black,
A symbol of love until death,
And never shall it die.
