Greyson Chance – White Roses lyrics
[Verse 1]
White roses on a pastel sky
Broken vows on our lips run dry
I see you out with your friends, you smile
It's funny how that goes, I haven't slept in a while

[Pre-Chorus]
I never saw it coming
I thought we had it all
I feel you in those moments
Those nights, held in your arms

[Chorus]
Darling, be careful with me
'Cause there's part of me that you don't know
Darling, be gentle with me
When you tell me that you need to go
And if you should miss me, don't call me
Don't tell me, just leave me alone
Because you cut me wide open
Left teardrops on all my white roses
'Cause you cut me wide open
Left teardrops on all my white roses

[Verse 2]
Same places on a Friday night
Holding glances, but we're tongue tied
I'm with my friends, and it's hard to smile
It's crazy how that feels, I haven't slept in a while

[Pre-Chorus]
I never saw it coming
I thought we had it all
I feel you in those moments
Those nights, held in your arms

[Chorus]
Darling, be careful with me
'Cause there's part of me that you don't know
Darling, be gentle with me
When you tell me that you need to go
And if you should miss me, don't call me
Don't tell me, just leave me alone
Because you cut me wide open
Left teardrops on all my white roses
'Cause you cut me wide open
Left teardrops on all my white roses

[Bridge]
I want to believe that maybe it's just emotion
But I cannot see my life without you, those moments
So wild and free, blinded by love, devoted
But now it's just me, unspoken words, white roses

[Chorus]
Darling, be careful with me
'Cause there's part of me that you don't know
Darling, be gentle with me
When you tell me that you need to go
And if you should miss me, don't call me
Don't tell me, just leave me alone
Because you cut me wide open
Left teardrops on all my white roses

    This is the most bittersweet song I've heard in a while. From the music video, we can see that the narrator is broken by an affair that left both him and the people around him damaged. However, Greyson made it clear in an interview that the character is not ashamed, just that he never saw it coming and in the aftermath of the storm, is left utterly broken. Greyson also revealed that this song in particular is difficult for him to perform as it is an incident from him own life that he based it on.
