Here take these roses

I picked them especially for you

Don't worry they won't hurt you

I removed all the thorns

These roses represent my love for you

You who is always there

Willing to help those in need

You who is beautiful and radiant

When the occasions calls for it

You who is willing to put on some old clothes

And did in the dirt to plant new life

And ending up with dirt on your beautiful face

You who has all the money and things

A person could ask for

Is but a simple girl at heart

Here take these roses

I picked them especially for you

These roses represent the love

I have for you
