You never promised me a |
|
Rose Garden |
|
You never said it would be easy |
|
You never promised me a leisure lifetime |
|
You only said you'd never leave me |
|
Well I never took the time to realize |
|
How much I needed love in order to survive |
|
I was so spoiled a princess in my time |
|
And your love was so deep |
|
And mine so blind |
|
You never promised me a ring made out of diamonds |
|
A band of gold you said was all you could buy |
|
You never said |
|
I'd be a rich man's lady |
|
And oh my darling no, you never lied |
|
Well I never took the time to realize |
|
How much I needed love in order to survive |
|
I was so spoiled a princess in my time |
|
And your love was so deep |
|
And mine so blind |
|
And now you're gone and |
|
I'm alone, and |
|
I'm so lonely |
|
Nothing seems to be the same |
|
One day I turned around and you no longer loved me |
|
In my life there's been a big change |
|
Now I've a big house |
|
With pillars standing tall all around |
|
Yeah, and |
|
I've got a garden |
|
And it's got roses dangling down to the ground |
|
Yes, and I've got money |
|
Men to love me and acres of land |
|
Well, I've got all these things |
|
All these things but a small gold band |
|
On my finger on my left hand |
|
Oh no you never promised |
|
You never promised me a |
|
Rose Garden |
