The Last Rose

This teenage boy stood at your door
I gently held a sweet red rose
I shyly offered hip and flare
A scribbled note attached, you read
Please be the sunlight in my summer skies
Please be the lovelight for all my life
You are the girl can make my dreams come true
You are the girl I give my roses to
Against a wedding dress of white, I held a sweet red rose so bright
Before we say the words "I do", my love, I give this rose to you
You'll be the sunlight in my summer skies
You'll be the lovelight for all my life
You are the girl can make my dreams come true
You are the one I give my roses to
Then came a happy baby boy
Our love cup overflowed with joy
You woke to see a rose of red, and heard the whispered words I said
You are the sunlight in my summer skies
You are the lovelight for all my life
You are the girl that makes my dreams come true
You are the one I give my roses to
Ah-ooh
You stand alone now, head bowed low
Someone hands you a sweet red rose
And on the card attached, you read, "Goodbye, my love
Don't cry for me." You were the sunlight in my summer skies
You were the lovelight for all my life
You were the one that made my dreams come true
You are the one I give my last rose to
