Teardrop on a Rose
While strolling through a lovely gardenAs day was drawing to a closeMy eyes beheld a tragic storyI saw a teardrop on a rose.It should have been a tear of gladnessBut deep inside the sorrow showsA trusting heart had just been brokenI saw a teardrop on a rose.A sobbing tear that follows partingHolds all the pain that sorrow knowsA false goodbye, a life is shatteredThere lies a story on a rose.The tear will dry the rose will witherWhen spring and winter comes and goesI loved, I lost, my story endedWith just a teardrop on a rose.
