Roses for you
Text & musik Johnny Larsson 1993
Ur "Men pappa, det var ju bara rock'n'roll"
Life is a garden of blossom and bloom
Life is a garden of flowers so rare
One with bright colours blazingly room
Filled with so beautyful girls everywhere
I pick all the flowers I happen to see
And to the sweet girls I give them away
But each special flower is chosen to be
Small words of love that I’m trying to say
I pick daisies for Lily
I pick lilies for Sue
And the violets for Rosie
And the roses for You
The cute little daisies like Lily so white
The straight growing lilies are smiling like Sue
The plain tiny violets that bloom in the night
Hiding so shy and like Rose always blue
And the red roses, though thorny rejection
Are glowing so hot and are shining so vast
Lavishing scent like a dizzy profusion
Possessing a beauty that can’t be surpassed
I pick daisies for Lily
I pick lilies for Sue
And the violets for Rosie
And the roses for You
Roses for You
