How do you stand when you're fallin' down
You're younger than most but you're gettin' on
Your drinking days have long since past
You're walking the trail where the soil is black
To the congregation on the continent
A star player in the voice of the firmament
I saw you gone your thorn exposed
And just as I you're a second hand rose
I'm your second hand rose
Your ocean's callin' from across street
The game of love it has reached defeat
Haunted by the myth of a remedy
And that's trouble calling when you're dug in deep
But there's a light in the window of the mystique
At a second hand rose selling antiques
My steps were loud on the cobblestones
Where I proposed and postponed
I'm your second hand rose
Your ocean's callin' from across street
The game of love it has reached defeat
Haunted by the myth of a remedy
And that's trouble calling when you're dug in deep
But there's a light in the window of the mystique
At a second hand rose selling antiques
My steps were loud on the cobblestones
Where I proposed and postponed
I'm your second hand rose
