Lone Rose Lyrics

Cover art for Lone Rose lyrics by David Dondero

this is sort of a tribute song to a girl who died. the title is "lone rose." and i guess the one thought that persists with me is that dondero has an important relationship with conor oberst. and on the bright eyes austin city limits conor dedicated a song to a girl named rose who died. and i'm just wondering if dondero is singing about the same rose that conor acknowledged on that show. if anyone has insight please post. i love this song. "i know you kinda didn't wanna die." that really moves me. the kinda. it really simplifies life and death and bridges the two extremes nicely.
