Buy Me A Rose - Luther Vandross
He works hard
to give her all he thinks
she wants
But it tears her apart
'cause nothing's for her heart
He pulls in late to wake her up
with a kiss goodnight
If he could only read her mind
she'd say
Buy me a rose call me from work
Open a door for me
what would it hurt
Show me you love me
by the look in your eyes
These are the little things
I need the most in my life

Now the days have grown
to years of feelin' all alone
As she sits and wonders if all
she's doin' is wrong
'Cause lately she'd try anything
just to turn his head
Would it make a difference
if she said
if she said
Buy me a rose call me from work
Open a door for me
what would it hurt
Show me you love me
by the look in your eyes
These are the little things
I need the most in my life
And the more that
he lives the less that he tries
To show her the love that
he holds inside
And the more that she gives
the more that he sees
This is the story of you and me
So I bought you a rose
on the way home from work
To open the door to a heart
that I hurt
And I hope you notice this
look in my eyes
'Cause I'm gonna make things right
for the rest of your life
Rest of your life
And I'm gonna hold you
tonight tonight
Do all those little things
for the rest of your life
of your life
