Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long
When I was a boy I planted a garden yeah
That meant so much to me, one of reality
A garden of love none like this before
One of a kind equality
A prayer for you and me
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong
If we can keep the candles burning
To shelter them from pain and let them live again
Shower the world with their innocence
Who's tears felt like rain, history remains the same
But one by one they come up missing
Strangers thought, strangers thought that I was sleeping
Some life, some life means nothing to some people
Watch out now we've got them on the run
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong
Tell me whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Will someone help me sing this song?
I haven't sing them for so long, so long...
My black roses...
Where have you been
Will someone say...
My, my black roses...
My precious black roses...
Night and day
I hear the children crying they say
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long, so long
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong
Tell me whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Will someone help me sing this song?
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
