Cool Hand Luke Album: Wake Up O Sleeper Track: Nobody Hugs A Rose
Nobody Hugs A Rose Lyrics
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
'Cause nobody hugs a rose Nobody hugs a rose Nobody hugs a rose She's all alone 'cause nobody hugs a rose
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
That nobody hugs a rose Nobody hugs a rose Nobody hugs a rose She's not alone 'cause somebody loved a rose
