From the recording Cardinal
Lyrics
A Special Kind of Tragedy
Roses are beautiful
Everybody wants one
As a symbol
Of their lovers love and what it cost them
Flowers never can appreciate their own beauty
Therein lies a special kind of tragedy
You are so beautiful
Everybody wants you
As a symbol
Of the love of G-d
For which they need proof and
Flowers never can appreciate their own beauty
Therein lies a special kind of tragedy
Most people have it when they are young
But most of them are all too busy having fun
A battle fought but never won
Echoed every day in the setting sun
[CHORUS] x 2
