The Lemon Twigs
Peppermint Roses
[Verse 1]
I know I'm the only one
I know the score
I see that I'm the only one here
I lost the one who's dear to me
My life is dead
I can't relieve the fear inside my head

[Chorus]
Goodbye peppermint roses
Hello pretty white hat
Holy father approaches
Oh, why's it gotta be like that?
Bring those peppermint roses back

[Verse 2]
Oh, who am I supposed to be
Myself or me?
And how can I pretend to bе that?
I lost the one who's dear to mе
My life is dead
I can't relieve the fear inside my head

[Chorus]
Goodbye peppermint roses
Hello pretty white hat
Holy father approaches
Oh, why's it gotta be like that?
Bring those peppermint roses back
[Bridge]
Peppermint roses are written in my door
Cutting me open, they're making me

[Chorus]
Wear you pretty white stockings
Buy me a resident [?]
But bring those peppermint roses
'Cause I don't wanna ask again
Bring my candycane roses back
