I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
|
Along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes
|
When you take you got to give so live and let live or let go
|
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
|
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
|
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover so you better think it over
|
Well it's sweet talking you could make it come true
|
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter but what would it matter
|
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
|
Come along and share the good times while we can
|
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
|
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
|
[ guitar ]
|
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
|
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
|
But if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go
|
But there's one thing I want you to know
|
You better look before you leap still waters run deep
|
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
|
And you know what I'm talking about
|
So smile for a while...
