One Red Rose - Eternally

(Chorus)

One red rose

For every year I had her

One red rose

For every year she's gone

One red rose

I'm trying to make a garden

To give her my bouquet

When God calls me home

(v.1)

She told me that she loved me

That she'd never leave

Now my arms are empty

My broken heart still grieves

(v.2)

I remember the instant

Captured by the moment

Hours ticketed by like minutes

When they said she wouldn't make it

(v.3)

My love, my life

My everything, my wife

Taken in the twilight

Of never ending starlight

(v.4)

One rose for eternity

That's all that she would need

The rose of Sharon for she

Would be kept eternally.
