Three Roses
Three roses for three graves,
Three roses for three soldiers,
Three roses for three loves,
A rose for my father
A rose for my lover
A rose for a friend
Three roses scarlet red
Three roses to place at the tombs of their weary head's.
Three Roses I said to the florist
Three roses for three memories
Three roses for three pieces of my heart
Three Roses cause of to the seraphim they did depart.
All three fought in wars,
All three came home,
All three lived with nightmares
of the darkness they dealt just before dawn.
None died on a distant shore
You three died by the third largest disease:
Cancer.
As it claimed you all in 3 different ways..
Three roses for three graves
Three roses for three soldiers
Three roses for three love's
Three roses for three pieces of my heart
A rose for my father
A rose for my lover
A rose for my friend
