Words and Music by
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
Verse 1
A ROSE MUST REMAIN WITH THE SUN AND THE RAIN,
OR IT LOVELY PROMISE WON’T COME TRUE,
TO EACH HIS OWN, TO EACH HIS OWN,
AND MY OWN IS YOU,
Verse 2
WHAT GOOD IS A SONG IF THE WORDS JUST DON’T BELONG,
AND A DREAM MUST BE A DREAM FOR TWO,
NO GOOD ALONE, TO EACH HIS OWN,
FOR ME THERE’S YOU,
Bridge
IF A FLAME IS TO GROW, THERE MUST BE A GLOW,
TO OPEN EACH DOOR, THERE’S A KEY,
I NEED YOU, I KNOW, I CAN’T LET YOU GO,
YOUR TOUCH MEANS TOO MUCH TO ME,
Verse 3
TWO LIPS MUST INSIST ON TWO MORE TO BE KISSED,
OR THEY’LL NEVER KNOW WHAT LOVE CAN DO,
TO EACH HIS OWN, I’VE FOUND MY OWN,
ONE AND ONLY YOU.
