Lyrics
Just A Rose
It?s just a rose, just a single rose
Pressed within a bible on a shelf
A once red rose, brings back memories
Of days she didn?t sit all by herself
The verse to marks has been forgotten long ago
Buried by the pain she feels inside
The happiness that once was there upon her face
Was washed away by all the tears she cried
It?s just a rose, just a single rose
Hidden in a place no one can see
This once red rose, can make her smile
When remembering the way life use to be
Bridge
She spends endless hours waiting patiently alone
No one ever visits, she prays someone will phone
But it?s just a rose, just a single rose
Hidden in a place no one can see
This once red rose, can make her smile
When remembering the way life use to be
Why has God forgotten her, why does no one care
She had given all she had, somehow it?s not fair
Her heart cries out for love and yet, no one seems to know
Her life would change with just a single rose
