Before the Last Petal Falls
September 11, 2008
Live
While the rose is lasting
Get dirty
While the rose is clean
Admire
'Cause this won't last forever
And dare
To have what you've never seen
Be beautiful
While the rose is perfect
Enjoy
While you can conquer all
Run
Before your time runs out
And love
Before the last petal falls
