With a rose in her hand and a candle on her chair
She put her hand on my head and with teary eyes she said
Precious time we had together
With a stone in my heart I looked up and she was gone
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
Meet me at the gates, my love
Down by the lock tonight
In a sequined dress she said everything will be alright
Precious time we had together
With a stone in my heart I looked up and she was gone
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
With a rose in her hand and a candle on her chair
She put her hand on my head and with teary eyes she said
Sometimes Lord it's hard not to lie down
But with a fire in my heart I stand up and I am strong
With a stone in my heart I looked up and she was gone
