Throwing roses at the moon
Overdosing on perfume
That arises from your picture
An inviolate fixture
This is more than I expected
It's as though I have erected
A mausoleum for my heart babe
I've reserved the best part babe
It's a memory in the making
It's a power that's taking
Control of my soul girl
Now there's nowhere left to go girl
Guess it only stands to reason
There's a time and a season
A place and purpose
I guess that verse don't include us
And it only goes to show you
You're just a ghost in a castle
That's my destiny to wrestle
It's a memory in the making
It's a power that's taking
Control of my soul girl
Now I'm in danger of the dark girl
Like my mama always said boy
You can sleep when you're dead boy
But all I really want to do girl
Is close my eyes and dream of you girl
Throwing roses at the moon
Overdosing on perfume
That arises from your pillow
How much further down love go
Repeat first chorus
Overdosing on perfume
That arises from your picture
An inviolate fixture
This is more than I expected
It's as though I have erected
A mausoleum for my heart babe
I've reserved the best part babe
It's a memory in the making
It's a power that's taking
Control of my soul girl
Now there's nowhere left to go girl
Guess it only stands to reason
There's a time and a season
A place and purpose
I guess that verse don't include us
And it only goes to show you
You're just a ghost in a castle
That's my destiny to wrestle
It's a memory in the making
It's a power that's taking
Control of my soul girl
Now I'm in danger of the dark girl
Like my mama always said boy
You can sleep when you're dead boy
But all I really want to do girl
Is close my eyes and dream of you girl
Throwing roses at the moon
Overdosing on perfume
That arises from your pillow
How much further down love go
Repeat first chorus
