I Planted a Rose
I planted a rose in the garden today
Its petals were tired and worn
My beautiful rose has seen better days
But today it will cause me to mourn
Wrinkled an wilted its stem can't stand
I carried it where ever I went
The sun gave it strength and the rain gave it joy
Though its better days were already spent
Its beauty and grace were unmatched in its day
People couldn't help but stare
It held to my hand every where I'd go
There was nothing that we didn't share
All the other flowers couldn't get my attention
No matter how hard they tried
For my eyes were made to look at my rose
Rose is the name of my bride
I planted a rose in the garden today
Its petals were tired and worn
My beautiful rose has seen better days
But today it will cause me to mourn
