I bought you a rose,
And gave it to you.
Not for any special reason,
Just because I wanted to.
This rose is to show you,
All the love my heart holds.
And mother I will love you,
Long after I have grown old.
If I were a rich girl,
You’d have a rose each day.
To show you I’m sorry,
For the things I do and say.
But I’m a poor girl,
And I have just one rose to give.
To show you I’ll love you dearest mom,
For as long as I shall live and then some.
