lyrics

wandering by the meadows of your love,
a white rose blooms alone,
has it want to be killed?
just waiting patient for the rain,
waiting patient for the pain,
there's a vase back home...

but mother, you'll never know,
oh mother, you'll never know...

gently does the villain lay his bed,
his child seeks out the knife,
it's a hidden heirloom, vampire.
and bursting forth from the great lament,
he leaves me at the corner.
i linger at the house which is haunted...

but mother, you'll never know,
oh mother, you'll never know.
oh mother, you'll never know,
oh mother, you'll never know...

"don't run, you could fall!",
and oh, how devastating
if the white rose were covered in dirt!
he announces, "there's a drought!",
she says, "look outside, it's raining!" -
my fear is my blood...

you'll never know,
oh mother, you'll never know.
my mother, you'll never know,
mother, you'll never know...

(you'll never know)

(you'll never know)

(you'll never know)

(you'll never know)
