about

I wrote this in a very cold basement after a very cold night wandering around the very cold streets of athens.

lyrics

She's more than a rose
She's too much to hold
She's more like a story
That's never been told

She slept through her days
Only came out at night
She's just like those questions
You never ask right

She might be a dream
Like a cloud of mist
In the back of your mind
She's someone you miss

And out on the streets
Where the shadows
They roam in the cold
And there's no one to meet
At home, so I go
Out to find
More than a rose

She's never far
She's never quite near
It's only a picture
That I keep right here

She speaks to me
Just like a ghost
Whispering to go
For more than a rose

And out on the streets
Where the shadows
They roam in the cold
And there's no one to meet
At home, so I go
Out to find
More than a rose
More than a rose
More than a rose
I guess I gotta go for
More than a rose
