Love is a rose
But don't touch the thorns
You'll find you only get hurt
The smell is so sweet
But it sure hides the seed
I know cause I've already learned
The color she bears
But always beware
Never be fooled by her sight
For a touch of her thorns 
Will hurt you one way
It might even take your life

Love is a rose
But keep your heart away
The thorns are so sharp, boy
They'll cut you someday
Love is a rose
Her sight will lead you astray
Once you've been hurt, boy
The pain always stays

Love is a rose
But don't touch the thorns
They're never to hold her near
The sweetness you smell
And the flower you held
Are cut from her wrath, so clear
For if you embrace
She will leave a trace
A tear in your heart that won't heal
So just stay away
Cause love is that way
Some pain you will always feel

Love is a rose
But keep your heart away
The thorns are so sharp, boy
They'll cut you someday
Love is a rose
Her sight will lead you astray
Once you've been hurt, boy
The pain always stays

Love is a rose
But keep your heart away
The thorns are so sharp, boy
They'll cut you someday
