When You Take a Rose

Singer Name: Travis Ledoyt

Album Name: Fever Dream

Every cry has one less shoulder

Every step less guiding eyes

What we built might come tumbling over

and it’s no surprise

Every crowd shows one less smile

Every mile has one less tale

When the lights cast one less shadow

Brother, I’m looking pale

Well I’m falling apart, I keep breaking down

I’ve lost more than I have found

Trying to stand but it feels like shaky ground

Oh lord

Every call has one less answer

Every fall there’s one less hand, reaching out

When I turn as the song is over

and say Let’s hear it for the band

Well I’m falling apart, I keep breaking down

I’ve lost more than I have found

Trying to be strong for the soul that’s surely bound

Heaven bound

God, the love that you needed above

Left below, and empty space where nothing grows

In this garden it shows when you take a rose

Then I’m falling apart, I keep breaking down – I can’t go

Never seeing you around

I’m Trying to be strong for the soul that’s surely bound

Heaven bound

My God, the love that you needed above

Left below, and empty space where nothing grows

In this garden it shows Lord, when you take a rose

Oh these tears, these tears are just the start

I keep on, I keep on, I keep on falling apart so help me

Help me heal this broken heart now

I’m falling apart,mmm and it shows, lord 

‘cause you chose to take a beautiful rose
