Red Rose
You are a red rose
 One with soft, bold, red petals
 One with pointy thorns
 
 You are dangerous
 You are a forbidden fruit
 I should not want you
 
 But my God, I do
 I just want to be with you
 Maybe hold your hand
 
 You are the sunshine
 Sunshine on a cloudy day
 Warmth on my bare skin
 
 You are a red rose
 One with soft, bold, red petals
 You are dangerous
 
 I look in your eyes
 Eyes that won't stop stunning me
 And I just know it
 
 
 I know what I want 
 But can it be that easy?
 I don't know for sure
 
 You are a red rose 
 One with soft, bold, red petals
 You are dangerous
 
 I should not want you,
 You are a forbidden fruit
 But my God, I do
 
 I look in those eyes
 Eyes the color of the sea
 And I am silenced
 
 You are a red rose
 One with soft, bold, red petals
 You are dangerous
 
 Because I just know
 There is something about you
 My lovely red rose
