First Rose of Spring

The first time that he saw her He knew everything had changed Overnight, love started blooming Like the first rose of spring Auburn hair like a sunrise Sweetest smile he'd ever seen Butterflies, they danced around her Like the first rose of spring Summertime would've never started And wintertime would never end She colored his life, opened his eyes To things he'd never dream Without the first rose of spring Gave him children like a garden Gave 'em all the love they'd need To grow up strong, she made a home And every year he'd bring her The first rose of spring The last time he saw her He knew everything had changed He said goodbye and let the tears fall like rain On the first rose of spring
