A Single Crimson Rose — текст песни (Amie Comeaux)

A little boy not much more than a baby
Found a rose and picked it like a child would do
Proudly he went running to his mommy
And with a grin he said, Look what me find for you

A teenage boy packed groceries at the market
A rebel kid sometimes a little wild
But every year on Mother`s Day and birthdays
He`d bring her a rose just like that little child

A single crimson rose
In time became a symbol of
Endless love shared between
A mother and her son
A single crimson rose
Was a special way to say
I`ll always love you come what may
A single crimson rose

At eighteen, he enlisted in the army
To fight a war he felt needed to be won
Sometimes he`d write on Mother`s Days and birthdays
He never failed to send a rose to mom

That soldier now is coming home a hero
With his medals to the mother that he loves
With tear-filled eyes, she tells him how she`s missed him
And on his casket lays a single crimson rose

A single crimson rose
In time became a symbol of
Endless love shared between
A mother and her son
A single crimson rose
Was a special way to say
I`ll always love you come what may
A single crimson rose

A single crimson rose
Was a special way to say
I`ll always love you come what may
A single crimson rose

A little boy not much more than a baby
Found a rose and picked it like a child would do
