lyrics

I don't have words for how you make me feel
You don't love me but somehow I love you Still
Only I can see the bruises on my ribs
Left there by the gentlest man that ever lived.

Oh, you know violets are blue.
My soul, my heart, my lips are too
Cause it's cold cold cold cold inside this room
and there's nothing that you could do.

Now silence ain't the best friend a girl could have
but he's always been there on this wandering path
I've pushed him away time and time again
but here you go pushin' me back to him

Oh, you know violets are blue.
My soul, my heart, my lips are too
Cause it's cold cold cold cold inside this room
and there's nothing that either of us could do.

Well here we are my friend, it's time for us to part
Cause I can't keep hopin' waitin', I'm far too tired
I wish you all the luck with your new friends
I hope they treat you better in the end
I've never been so low but I'll still smile today
Cause that means that, from here, up is the only way

Oh, you know violets are blue.
My soul, my heart, my lips are too
Cause it's cold cold cold cold inside this room
And there's nothing that I could do.
Cause it's cold cold cold cold inside this room
