Texty: Cool Hand Luke. Wake Up O Sleeper. Nobody Hugs A Rose.

She cannot see the ocean
For the trees that block the way
She cannot see forever ?cause she can?t see past today
She?s driving home so empty
From another one night stand
With a guy who doesn?t care but just wants to feel like a man
If only falling in love was as easy as making it

But nobody hugs a rose
Nobody hugs a rose
Nobody hugs a rose
She?s all alone ?cause nobody hugs a rose
She has no ring to speak of
Save the one her daddy left
He stepped out of her life leaving some jewelry on a shelf
Seems like every man she loves ends up walking away

There?s never been a prettier soul
No, there?s never been a lovelier rose
But she can never wipe away all her tears
She cries herself to sleep and wakes up to the same old fears
She only needs someone to hold her right now
A man who would wear those thorns like a crown

She steps into her bedroom
And falls onto the floor
She cries out to her savior
That she just can?t take no more
Jesus says, ?Girl, I?ve been waiting
For this very day
When I could pick you up and strip those dirty thorns away?
Nevermore will she think in her old futile ways
