The Only Rose — текст песни (Wilkinsons, The)

(Steve Wariner/Steve Wilkinson)

A little red-headed girl
Stood at the mirror
Studying her face
She didn`t like her nose
And all of those freckles
She`d love to erase
Her inventory told the story
And from where she stood
There`s so much she would change
Oh if she could

As she said to herself
I`d be anyone else
If it were up to me
Her mom walked in
And said with a grin
One day girl you`ll see

There`s a million stars
In the summer sky
And each one has its name
There`s a million snowflakes
In the wintertime
But no two are quite the same
And there`s something
You can`t see right now
But one day girl you`ll know
In a field that`s full of daisy`s
You`re the only rose

You can talk about clothes
Talk about make-up
That`s a matter of style
And I bet Mona Lisa`s mother
Heard her daughter say
She didn`t like her smile
What`s inside you just can`t hide
`Cause beauty runs so deep
And one day you`ll knock
Some young man right off his feet
