Need information on a song I believe entitled Blue Roses: Lyrics start like this: Her lips and her dress they're both ruby red. She thinks that's how you hide the pain inside. Looking for author, lyrics etc. for a friend who wishes to record this and needs to clear copyrights on it. Thanks

Here are the lyrics. Perhaps someone will recognize this song.

                           BLUE ROSES


HER LIPS AND HER DRESS THEY'RE BOTH RUBY RED
SHE THINKS THAT'S HOW YOU HIDE
THE PAIN YOU FEEL INSIDE
SHE COMES OUT EVERY NIGHT
TO SOAK UP THE NEON LIGHT
HER PERFUME FILLS THE AIR
PEOPLE STOP AND STARE


BLUE ROSES LOOKING FOR THE MOON IN SOMEONES EYES
BLUE ROSES WILLING TO BELIEVE IN SOMEONES LIES
BLUE ROSES PETALS HAVE BEEN CRUSHED ALONG THE WAY
OH OH OH BLUE ROSES JUST GROWING BLUER EVERY DAY


ONE MORE DRINK ONE MORE DANCE
YOU MIGHT BE HER ONLY CHANCE
SHE NEEDS SOMEONE TO HOLD
WHEN THE NIGHT IS GROWING OLD
AND IF YOU DON'T MIND THE THORNES
SHE'LL TAKE YOU IN AND KEEP YOU WARM
LYING IN THE DARK IN A BED OF BROKEN HEARTS


BLUE ROSES LOOKING FOR THE MOON IN SOMEONES EYES
BLUE ROSES WILLING TO BELIEVE IN SOMEONES LIES
NOW BLUE ROSES PETALS HAVE BEEN CRUSHED ALONG THE WAY
OH OH OH BLUE ROSES JUST GROWING BLUER EVERY DAY
NOW BLUE ROSES JUST GROWING BLUER EVERY DAY

that's a beautiful song...was it perhaps inspired in part by the character of Laura in Tennesee's Williams " The Glass Menagerie "? Her nickname was Blue Roses :)

Blue Rose Is
by Pam Tillis

Album :


Her lips and her dress, they're both ruby red
She thinks that's how you hide the pain you feel inside
And she comes out every night to soak up the neon light
Her perfume fills the air, people stop and stare, but...

Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone's eyes
Blue Rose is willing to believe someone's lies
Now Blue Rose's petals have been crushed along the way
Oh, Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday

One more drink, one more dance, you might be her only chance
She needs someone to hold when the night is growing old
And if you don't mind the thorns, she'll take you in and keep you warm
Lying in the dark in a bed of broken hearts, 'cause...

Blue Rose is looking for the moon in someone's eyes
Blue Rose is willing to believe someone's lies
Now Blue Rose's petals have been crushed along the way
Oh, Blue Rose is just growing bluer everyday
