Verse

Down the road from where the bath was born
The lonely widowed old woman is feeling the thorn
No longer needed
The kids have moved on

Put on the highway song

Frosted glass on the door
I put my hand to it
Surprised, I jerk my hand back
Sad, it reminds me of loneliness


Somewhere, there's a rose blooming out of a parking lot.

Reminds me of the Scarlet Letter... Even the plants the sprout from their graves told of their struggle in life..
