Rose Garden

Rose Garden


I beg your pardon I never promised you
a rose garden Along with the sunshine
there's got to be a little rain sometime
When you take you got to give
so give and let live or let go
oh oh oh I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things
like big diamond rings
but you don't find roses growing
on stalks of clover so you better
think it over When it's sweet
talking you could make it
come true I would give you
the world right now on a silver platter
but what would it matter So smile for a while
and let's be jolly love shouldn't be
so melancholy Come along and share
the good times while we can
I beg your pardon I never promised you
a rose garden Along with the sunshine
there's got to be a little rain sometime
I beg your pardon I never promised you
a rose garden I could sing you a tune
and promise you the moon but if that's what
it takes to hold you I'd just as soon
let you go but there's one thing
I want to know You better look
before you leap still waters run deep
and there won't always be someone there
to pull you out and you know what
I'm talking about smile for a while
and let's be jolly love shouldn't be
so melancholy Come along and share
the good times while we can
I beg your pardon I never promised
you a rose garden Along with the sunshine
there's got to be a little rain sometime
