Thunder and Roses Lyrics

Once I had flowers at sunset
Breakfast in bed
And I hated myself for what I never felt
I couldn`t love him

Then I had fire at midnight
Passion that brought tears to my eyes
It was like a joke, I couldn`t get enough
But he didn`t love me

I want to know why I can`t have both
Someone that soothes my heart
And burns my soul
Something I can trust
But I can`t control
All I need is someone who brings me
Thunder and roses

I want to be safe and warm
In a beautiful storm
With somebody who shakes me
And knows how to take me away from this world

Candies that burn all night
A lover that looks into my eyes
A man who loves me
And knows how to touch me everywhere

I want to know why I can`t have both
Someone that soothes my heart
And burns my soul
Something I can trust
But I can`t control
All I need is someone who brings me
Thunder and roses

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
