A looking glass the window 

Holds a better place 

Through it I can see her 

as she comes my way 

I wonder does she wonder 

Who left that rose for her that day 

Somewhere in the distance 

I can see her face 

Flawed only with perfection 

As she turns I say 

So did you like the rose that I left for you that day 

Now all I have is a drawer full of photographs 

Of you and I 

That we'll never take 

I know I'll never forget her 

She'll be my glass rose until I say 

So this is how it ends 

how it never begins 

so this is how it ends with us. 

now all I have is a drawer full of photographs 

of you and I 

that we'll never take 

I know I'll never forget her 

She'll be my glass rose until I say.
