The first time I saw her I loved her and I knew Your a long way from home And I hated the fact that you’re going back So I wrote you a poem I picked up my guitar and I played you my song And somehow you came in my life There’s a whole world of people That try every day To find that dear someone To whom they can say Please say you’ll stay and always be close Don’t go away I love you Rose I’ll be the best friend that you’ve ever had Hold you so tight and make you hard glad Make your heart glad The years went by and you stayed by my side Two girls came into our life What joy they did bring like this song that I sing So glad that you are my wife
