Winter Roses

December flowers fall like old love notes
Scattered like secrets in worn-out coats
You left your name in the frozen breeze
While winter moved in without asking me

No carols here, just windows cold
And bare rose stems where stories unfold

Oh, winter roses, falling slow
Like hearts that love but never show
Every petal's a quiet goodbye
Scent of a moment that passed me by

Nights feel like perfume that no one wears
I still hear your laugh in empty chairs
Red dresses spinning in the air
But your name's the one thing that lingers there

I waited for you in the frozen haze
But only snowflakes and silence stayed

Oh, winter roses, falling slow
Like hearts that love but never show
Every petal's a quiet goodbye
Scent of a moment that passed me by

Oh, winter roses, soft and low
Whisper my name where the cold winds blow
Even if time forgets to bloom
You're my winter, my frozen room
