They say that every thing you do Turns out all wrong And that you're bound to lose And you'll love me too much Take me along Chorus: Oh, baby don't ever try to close a rose After it blooms to the tune Of a spring time day It won't work any way 'Cause once it knows the sun It grows and keeps on growing Knowing it must say goodbye To the field and the sky So don't you worry about me You could never make me unhappy 'Cause we've both have been touched By the spring time sun We already won As long as you want me I'll be right there But with a life time of hard times We gotta love, babe we can share (chorus)(repeat)
