Like red on a rose, When your lips first smiled at me, I was captured instantly, To each his own. Like blue in the sky, The gaze of your willing eyes, Touched something deep inside, The truth be known. That I love you like all little children love pennies, And I love you 'cause I know that I can't do anything wrong, You're where I belong Like red on a rose. And I love you like all little children love pennies, And I love you like good times of which I've known many. And I love you 'cause I know you give me a heart of my own. You make my blood flow Like red on a rose
