Lyrics
Instrumental Intro - Harmonica-led, A slow, soulful harmonica melody over acoustic guitar and soft percussion
Verse 1
I found a letter in the drawer, tied with lace and dust and time
Your faded words still whisper, like a ghost inside my mind
You said love was like a wildfire, burning bright then turning cold
Now all that’s left are ashes, and a story left untold
Chorus
Black roses on the windowsill,
Wilting in the morning chill
You left without a reason why,
Just a shadow in the sky
I water them with tears each day,
But they just fade to shades of gray
Black roses, like our love,
Once bloomed, now not enough
Verse 2
The porch light’s still flickering, like hope that won’t let go
I play your song on vinyl, let the harmonica blow
The wind still hums your lullaby, through every creaking door
But silence fills the spaces where your laughter lived before
Chorus
Black roses on the windowsill,
Wilting in the morning chill
You left without a reason why,
Just a shadow in the sky
I water them with tears each day,
But they just fade to shades of gray
Black roses, like our love,
Once bloomed, now not enough
Instrumental Break - Harmonica Solo, A melancholic harmonica solo with steel guitar and fiddle weaving in
Bridge
黒いバラが枯れても
心はまだ君を待ってる
夜の風に名前を呼ぶ
愛は消えない、夢の中でも
Kuroi bara ga karete mo
Kokoro wa mada kimi o matteru
Yoru no kaze ni namae o yobu
Ai wa kienai, yume no naka demo
Final Chorus
Black roses on the windowsill,
Still holding on against their will
You vanished like a summer storm,
Left my world so bruised and torn
I water them with all I am,
But they don’t bloom, they just withstand
Black roses, silent proof,
Of a love that spoke the truth
Outro - Harmonica Fade Out, A gentle reprise of the intro melody, fading into silence
End
