  • "This dream never ends" you said
    This feeling never goes
    The time will never come to slip away
    "This wave never breaks," you said
    This sun never sets again
    These flowers will never fade (never fade)

    "This world never stops," you said
    This wonder never leaves
    The time will never come to say, goodbye
    This tide never turns", you said
    This night never falls again
    These flowers will never die

    Never die, never die
    These flowers will never die, never die

    "This dream always ends," I said
    This feeling always goes
    The time always comes to slip away
    This wave always breaks," I said
    This sun always sets again
    And these flowers will always fade

    This world always stops," I said
    "This wonder always leaves
    The time always comes to say, Goodbye (say goodbye, say goodbye)
    This tide always turns," I said
    This night always falls again
    And these flowers will always die

    Always die, always die
    These flowers will always die

    Between you and me it's hard to ever really know
    Who to trust? How to think? What to believe?
    Between me and you it's hard to ever really know
    Who to choose? How to feel? What to do?

    Never fade, never die
    You give me flowers of love
    Always fade, always die
    I let fall
    Flowers of blood Writer/s: Jason Toop Cooper, Perry Bamonte, Robert James Smith, Roger O'donnell, Simon Gallup

  • Eriquito from Orlando, FlYou are all wrong, this song has to do with Robert's alcoholism and how bloodstains ended up on his toilet paper...
  • Chuck from Nanaimo, Bcthis is what i get out of it one half is his wife and how she sees life and the other half is him
    a bloodflower is life and soul
    he has no faith and the soul will die (tide always turns ect)
    but she says it will never die the love and soul will never end so ther for she gives him flowers of blood
  • Ziggy Hendrix from Lindenhurst , Ilthis song seems to be about a cynical guy who falls in love with an upbeat girl.
  • Trav from None Of Your Business, CaYour right, Trav. Half the song is ment to be a chirade of innocence whilst the other is about the sad end of that innocence.
  • Trav from San Carlos, AlHalf of the song is a almost childish persona who believes that all good times will last, while the other half is a mockery of the first half. at the end it says how you must choose which one to live by.
