Letra de Song With Rose - Elvis Costello & The Imposters

Between last breaths and first regrets
The days dragged on like cigarettes
In distance, martyrs and martinets dally,
Dancing with the empty silhouettes of threats
So where but heaven does love end
And where on earth does it begin?
It's not the kind of love
That is pinned like a medal
Or precious pennies in a tin.

There is hope, and after that there is only faith
Love like a wraith never made me afraid,
Consoled as I was by that shade.

Here lie the roses in the ashes
Deep as the barnacles that cling

Just like a lace that runs through everyone
And everything.

In that other still forever
In that time before the past
I told myself we'd be together
Can you promise me that it will be eternally?

There is hope, and after that there is only faith
Love like a wraith never made me afraid,
Consoled as I was,
Consoled as I was,
Consoled as I was by that shade.
