Love Is a Rose

Love is a rose but you better not pick it Only grows when it's on the vine Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it Lose your love when you say the word mine I want to see what's never been seen I want to live that age-old dream Come on boy let's go together Let's take the best right now Love is a rose but you better not pick it Only grows when it's on the vine Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it Lose your love when you say the word mine I want to go to an old hoedown Long ago in a western town Pick me up 'cause my feet are dragging Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon Love is a rose but you better not pick it Only grows when it's on the vine Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it Lose your love when you say the word mine Love is a rose but you better not pick it Only grows when it's on the vine Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it Lose your love when you say the word mine Mine Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose Love is a rose --- Love Is a Rose - Linda Ronstadt
