Like A Rose

1. And as I look into your eyes
I see an angel in disguise
Sent from God above for me to love
To hold and idolize.

And as I hold your body near
I'll see this month through to a year
And then forever on till life is gone
I'll keep your loving near.

And now I've finally found my way
To lead me down this lonely road
All I have to do is follow you
To lighten off my load.

[Chorus:]
You treat me like a rose
You give me room to grow
You shone the light of love on me
And gave me air so I can breathe.

You open doors that close
In a world where anything goes
You give me strength so I stand tall
Just like a rose.

2. And when I feel like hope is gone
You give me strength to carry on
Each time I look at you there's something new
To keep our loving strong.

I hear you whisper in my ear
All of the words I long to hear
Of how you'll always be here next to me
To wipe away my tears.

And now I've finally found my way
To lead me down this lonely road
All I have to do is follow you
To lighten off my load.

[Bridge:]
And though the seasons change
Our love remains the same
You face the thunder
When the sunshine turns to rain
Just like a rose.

[Coda:]
You give me strength so I stand tall
Within this bed of earth
Just like a rose.
