To Gloria

LETRA

To Gloria

All the lights have faded on these streets of this forgotten town
That's when she flips the open sign, then turns it back around
The working men pull up, walk in, they're all on borrowed time
Monday morning hopes and dreams are dying on the vine

I never told a single soul, she's buried in the past
A thousand miles of broken hearts, her name on every overpass
I still send flowers with the name, a flame that burned too fast
To Gloria

That abandoned pool near our high school, used for everything but getting wet
You walked up to me in your Guess jeans, thought you might have just lost a bet
But you grabbed right hold of both my hands
Said, 'I love this song, come on, let's dance'
That night, it lasted all summer long
Then just like that, the thrill was gone

I never told a single soul, she's buried in the past
A thousand miles of broken hearts, her name on every overpass
I still send flowers with the name, a flame that burned too fast
To Gloria

Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything

I still send flowers with the name, a flame that burned too fast
To Gloria
To all the hearts you burned since then, we raise a tear-filled glass
To Gloria

Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
Red roses don't mean anything
