Charley Pride - Rose Is for Today lyrics
[Charley Pride - Rose Is for Today lyrics]
Brought her a red rose
Then for an hour we slipped away
And had lunch just for two
Well no I didn't get the job babe
So that new dress'll have to wait
And though she planned to wear it Sunday
She just smiled and said okay
She knows the rose is for today
But my love is for always
And a rose is all I can give
Till better times come our way
She knows I'll still be needing her
Long after all the petals fade
The rose is for today but
My love is for always
When we're home and the day is done she
Hugs my neck cause she knows I'm down
Talkin' low and lettin' feelings
Show she says my love is all that counts
But I want a mansion to shelter her
And babe we'll have it all someday
And for ev'ry petal on the red rose
I promise you'll have a bouquet
She knows the rose is for today
But my love is for always
And a rose is all I can give
Till better times come our way
She knows I'll still be needing her
Long after all the petals fade
The rose is for today but
My love is for always
