Pam Tillis - Thunder And Roses lyrics

Once I had flowers at sunset

Breakfast in bed

And I hated myself for what I never felt

I couldn't love him

Then I had fire at midnight

Passion that brough tears to my eyes

It was like a joke, I couldn't get enough

But he didn't love me

I want to know why I can't have both

Someone that soothes my heart

And burns my soul

Something I can trust

But I can't control

All I need is someone who brings me

Thunder and roses

I want to be safe and warm

In a beautiful storm

With somebody who shakes me

And knows how to take me away from this world

Candies that burn all night

A lover that looks into my eyes

A man who loves me

And knows how to touch me everywhere

I want to know why I can't have both

Someone that soothes my heart

And burns my soul

Something I can trust

But I can't control

All I need is someone who brings me

Thunder and roses
