A few miles north of winnipeg
With the sky above so wide
We were standing there smoking on your grave
When you asked me for a light
I've been praying to the church of the queen of diamonds
Singing live while we are young
We were drinking all the champagne from the bottle
So tomorrow never comes
And all the little roses
All the little roses
Don't grow here no more
You were dressed in gold
Never getting older than now
We were getting high
And losing sight of the crowd
So put on your crown, put on your crown
I've been praying to the church of the queen of diamonds
Singing live while we are young
We were drinking all the champagne from the bottle
So tomorrow never comes
And all the little roses
All the little roses
Don't grow here no more
And he said
Speak your truth
Before i'm dead
It's been hanging heavy on my head
And on the drive
I broke down crying
I still think of you as my old friend
I've been praying to the church of the queen of diamonds
Singing live while we are young
We were drinking all the champagne from the bottle
So tomorrow never comes
And all the little roses
All the little roses
Don't grow here no more
