Come, let me hold you for a while
All you have to do is smile
And I'm yours again
I may not like some things you do
But they're all a part of you
And you're my best friend

[Chorus]
I don't mind the cold when I have a fire to warm me
I don't mind the rain 'cause it makes the flowers grow
I can take the bad times when you wrap your love around me
I don't mind the thorns when you're the rose

Stay, we can work the whole thing out
That's what love's about
And I understand
You didn't mean the things you said
They're so easy to forget
When you take my hand

[Chorus]

If it was anybody else, I would be gone
But you're so beautiful to me, oh that I keep on holding on

[Chorus]
I don't mind the thorns when you're the rose
