Roses From My Friends Lyrics by Ben Harper

Roses From My Friends Lyrics

    I could have treated you better
    But you couldn't have treated me worse
    But it's he who laughs last
    Is he who cries first

    Sometimes i feel i know strangers
    Better than i know my friends
    Why must a beginning
    Be the means to an end

    The stones from my enemies
    These wounds will mend
    But i cannot survive
    The roses from my friends

    When the last word has been spoken
    And we've beared witness to the final setting sun
    All that shall remain is a token
    Of what we've said and done

    When all we've had has been forsaken
    Distant church bells no longer ring
    That's the sound of a heart taken
    And the story of tears from a king

    The stones from my enemies
    These wounds will mend
    But i cannot survive
    The roses from my friends

    This may be the last time i see you
    Forgive me for holding you close
    This may be the last time that i see you
    So of this moment i will make the most

    This may be the last time i see you
    But if you keep me in your heart
    Together we shall be eternal
    If you believe
    We shall never part

    The stones from my enemies
    These wounds will mend
    But i cannot survive
    The roses from my friends
