about

This is the oldest track that made it onto the record and the title track!! I see this scenario playing out all the time around me. A girlfriend or boyfriend does something extremely selfish and hurtful to their partner (aka cheating or saying something like "you're ugly... you're lucky to have me") and then they come back a day later with tropical flowers and chocolates and they're forgiven!! Forgiveness is VERY IMPORTANT.... don't get me wrong.... but cheating??? Really???

lyrics

Down an old grid road, lined with sticks and stones
"You'll be only mine, girl" says a man with a cross on his arm
You'll have a story to tell, lined with sticks from hell
Standing on your head, with only emptiness to spend

Chorus:
If you're only lovely with diamonds, I don't want your loveliness

Down a wishing well, you whisper, you scream, you yell
All you wanted was a kiss, you got tears and expensive roses

Chorus:
If you're only lovely with flowers, I don't want you're roses

music is universal. pain seems to be as well. i live my life believing that healing can be a universal thing too. we are all capable of that.

i'm currently studying music therapy but still enjoy writing, recording and playing shows. my album "I Don't Want Your Roses" is up on Itunes! Or you can get a physical copy via meghanbowman@hotmail.com
