Rose Of A Day (Larry W. Jones 10/23/2007) (song#5101)

I stood in love's garden manor
For awhile dear, with you alone
Ne'er could I ask for love finer
But tomorrows cannot be known

Like a bee drawn to a rosebud
I was a pawn in love's game with you
Now you're gone like a faded dream
Love's flower from a day that I knew

The rose of a day that I knew
One I thought would grow by my side
With much regret I can't forget
The rose of a day that has died

Like a bee drawn to a rosebud
I was a pawn in love's game with you
Now you're gone like a faded dream
Love's flower from a day that I knew

The rose of a day that I knew
One I thought would grow by my side
With much regret I can't forget
The rose of a day that has died

When I saw you sprout, my heart gave a shout
But now I'm without you, my love
The rose of a day in my heart will stay
But along with the thorn thereof

The rose of a day in my heart will stay
But along with the thorn thereof
