Buy Me A Rose

He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants

Three car garage, her own credit cards

He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight

If he could only read her mind she'd say:

"Buy me a rose

Call me from work

Open a door for me what would it hurt

Show me you love me by the look in your eyes

These are the litte things

I need the most in my life"

Now the days have grown

To years of feeling all alone

She can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong

Lately she'd try anything to turn his head

Would it make a difference if she'd say:

"Buy me a rose

Call me from work

Open the door for me what would it hurt

Show me you love me by the look in your eyes

These are the litte things

I need the most in my life"

And the more that he lives

The less that he tries

To show her the love that he holds inside

And the more that she gives

The more that he sees

This is the story of you

And me

So I bought you a rose

On the way home from work

To open the door to a heart that I hurt

And I hoped you noticed this look in my eyes

Cause I'm gonna make things right

For the rest of your life (rest of your life)

And I'm gonna hold you tonight

Do all those little things

For the rest of your life
