You may wonder if you know me
|
You may wonder if I care
|
Or if I'll leave you sad and lonely
|
Or if I'll always be right there
|
Well there's no need for doubt now darlin'
|
'Cause I have come to know
|
This love of ours is no common flower
|
You know this love is like a red, red rose
|
|
And you may wonder about this dreamer
|
If she's all you thought she'd be
|
And, oh, if anything but someday
|
Ever comes from lovin' me
|
But hold me close and tell me darlin'
|
That you have come to know
|
This love I bring you is no common thing
|
You know this love is like a red, red rose
|
|
When you're all caught up in sweet surrender
|
Simple truth is sometimes hard to see
|
Here between the tough times and the tender
|
It all comes down to you and me
|
|
And you may see my heart of darkness
|
I may stumble now and again
|
But underneath this heart of darkness
|
There's a heart that's lovin' you right till the end
|
So hold me close, come hold me darlin'
|
'Cause I want you to know
|
This love of ours is no common flower
|
You know this love is like a red, red rose
|
|
This love of ours is no common flower
|
You know this love is like a red, red rose
|
