Seal is saying that he is a very dark person (sad? depressed? old and cynical?)
His love represents light. (Happiness? Joy?)
"A kiss from a rose on the grave" is a great lyric.
He is using metaphor to say that when a rose is placed on a grave, it "kisses" it.
So, his lover is like a kiss from a rose on a grave. His lover, beautiful, is the rose. He feels like a grave.

The rose is the girl
The bloom is her womanly beauty
He is the Grave cause he is lonley.
Seal is so freaky poetic.....

wiki says
"It was rumoured that "Kiss from a Rose" is potentially about the use of cocaine. This has been disputed by others, who argue that it is more about the pure love between a man and a woman, similar to the concept of the story of Beauty and the Beast."

People rumored that it was about cocaine use, but others say it's a comparison to the story of The Beauty and the Beast. Personally I believe the latter.

TBH i always thought this song was about taking drugs, so many pop songs are full of double meanings its hard to tell nowadays.
Ill be watching this one with interest.

He's telling this girl, "Now that I finally see you/ love you, it has brought light to me because I was lonely/ gloomy"
