Buy Me A Rose
by Kenny Rogers
Elite Rose Kenny's website

He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants
A three-car garage and her own credit cards
He drives in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight
If he could only read her mind
She'd say...

Buy me a rose
Open a door for me
What could it hurt?

Show me you love me
by the look in your eyes
These are the little things
I need the most in my life

Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone
And she can't help but wonder what she's doin' wrong
Seems like she'd do anything to turn his head
Would it make a difference if she'd said...

Buy me a rose
Call me from work
Open a door for me
What could it hurt?

Show me you love me
by the look in your eyes
These are the little things
I need the most in my life.

The harder he works, the less that he tries to show her
the love that he holds inside
And the longer he lives, the more that he sees
this is the story of you and me
So I bought you a rose on my way home from work
to open the door to a heart that I hurt
And I hope you notice this look in my eyes
'Cause I'm gonna make things right
for the rest of your life
For the rest of your life

And I'm gonna hold you tonight
and do all those little things
for the rest of your life.
