Everyday A Rose
(For Lisa)

Everyday a rose and a brilliant ray of sun
I wish for my sweet darling, to show our love is one.
Love has grown a garden, sprouting blossoms in my soul
Blooming sweet and tender, making my heart ever whole.

Crimson like my life blood and a sunset out at sea
Petals of softest velvet, bursts forth in lover's glee.
Seasons change and buds are born, our love grows ever true
Watered by my sweetheart's tears and early morning dew.

Never will these blossoms wilt, nor die inside of me
Tempered by a storm or tamed by the hand of thee.
The blooms will keep on growing, one for each new dawning day
For everyday a rose and our love will always stay.

Everyday, and sometimes twice, a rose does sprout anew
Adding to love's garden, blossoms grown by you.
You touch my soul and hold my heart, planting deep your seed
Letting love find its home, it's you with me I need.

Beautiful and proud, the rose salutes the sky
Not letting one day pass, with others, our love, deny.
A rose is still a rose, no matter where the bloom
And in my soul around your name, love replaces gloom.

My love will always be there, to hold you close and strong
Gaining from your love, when blossoms grow and days are long.
Budding in your sweetness and tended by your heart love grows
For everyday, you are my rose.
