Take Back Time

(Rosemary Griffin)

These lyrics reflect on the cruel nature of time and how quickly it passes taking what's special in life with it. Initially they describe how time robs one of love and hope and how devastating that can be and then the bridge is a rally cry, telling how one can reclaim the past again.

Where has all the time gone, does anybody know?
Who's stolen all the hours, with nothing left to show? 
Where has all our love gone, can anybody say? 
What happened to the romance we once shared day to day? 

Where have all the dreams gone we made when we were young? 
Our lives laid out before us now unravelled now undone
The years have gone too quickly and left us all alone
The light has gone completely there's nothing to atone

Bridge:
I want to take back tbe time that is mine
Want to feel all the passion that I have left behind 
Want to dance in the moonlight, make love in the rain 
Take back time
Take back time

Red roses

By Pandit

Red roses here are symbolic of superficiality. Blue, green, yellow whatever colour is painted red because that's what everybody likes. The verses talk about impact on an individuals life mentally and physically due to the social conditions. The chorus gets more darker and is a picture of what goes on inside of us. And the bridge is hopeful of a new start.
