Woodland Rose

There's a comfort that's come
From knowin' you're near
Though I don't hear your voice
We've drifted apart
Like ships in the dark
My darling it was never by choice
Words said in anger
That turned us to strangers
Tears that stain the path of dreams we chased
A moment's lapse of trust
Can never define us
Or lay this castle that we've built to waste
I want so to hold you
Though I don't deserve to
And doors once open lie closed
It's always been a fault of mine
Rememberin' only the good times
It's one of the many you know
My sweet little Woodland Rose
My sweet Woodland Rose
If what I've heard's true
You're with someone new
It was only a matter of time
Took many moons to overcome my wounds
And I buried that sword called pride
No amount of distance
Or time's slow persistance
Can sever the bond we share
If you're feelin' alone
And your mind starts to roam
Know that I'll always be there
I want so to hold you
Though I don't deserve to
And doors once open lie closed
It's always been a fault of mine
Rememberin' only the good times
It's one of the many you know
My sweet little Woodland Rose
My sweet Woodland Rose
We've drifted apart
Like ships in the dark
My darling it was never
By choice
