There  once was a time when I was a girl
 That darkness hunged in my  sky
 I was old before I learned to  be young
 Just don't call till I learn how  to cry
 and the weeds in  the ground have grow up through my skin
 it's taking  a lonesome girl's heart
 I will  go where the stolen roses grow
 to forget that I have fell  apart
 (  )
 the thorns on the roses cut through my  skin
 the vultures flew down and then  parted
 what lay on the surface was a tiny crack
 and below was a gigantic wreck
 so I held  my head down and I dealt with the blows
 In hope  that I'd soon be free to go where  the stolen  roses grow
 to forget I have bad memory
 (  )
I  will go where the stolen roses grow
 I will go where the stolen roses grow
 and the weeds in  the ground have grow up through my skin
 It's taking  a lonesome girl's heart
 I will go  where the stolen roses grow
 to forget that I have fell  apart
