I shall lay a rose on your tombstone
With tears in my eyes I will remember
One and one but never two
A love never expressed
Tears will drop as sadness will engulf me
Words forever unsaid will linger
I shall lay a rose on your tombstone
When your deathday shall come
And at last the wall
Will fall
Joy and happiness will mingle

Victims of a simple irony
You and I will forever be.
