Lyrics Black Roses - Inner Circle

Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long

When I was a boy I planted a garden
That meant so much to me
One of reality, yeah
A garden of love, none like this before
One of a kind quality, yeah
A prayer for you and me, oh oh

Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long, so long!
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong

If we can keep the candles burning
To shelter them from pain
Oh let them laugh again, oh oh
Shower the world with their innocence
Whose tears felt like rain
History remains the same, oh

But one by one they come up missing
Strangers thought, strangers thought I was sleeping
Some life, some life mean nothing to some people
Watch out now we've got them on the run
On the run, yeah!

Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong

Tell me!

Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Will someone help me sing this song
I haven't seen them for so long
So long!
My black roses!
Where have you been
Will someone say
My, my black roses
My precious black roses
Night and day I hear the children crying they say

Whatever happened to my garden of Black Roses?
Oh nurturing years of so long, so long!
Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
They say a stranger treated them wrong

Whatever happened to my garden of black roses?
Will someone help me sing this song...
