Beautiful and bright as the Red Rose;
With only one hope: 'You'll remember me.'
Know that I'll always love you,
And that this love will not fade.
Fresh, so sweet, the fragrance,
Of those happy times, wonderful, sublime, we once shared.
If I should dare, say you still care!
Think of my love as a Rose.
(Brief music interlude)
I wish you nothing but gladness,
And a life filled with Joy!
Seasons may come;
Years, they may go,
Love can survive,
Through Winter's snow.
And so this love will for you,
Think of my love as a Rose.
As Seasons fly; Years, as they go,
Think of my love as a Rose!
J.N. Holland

(Duration: 6 minutes)
