Nana Mouskouri - Love Is a Rose Lyrics

Love is a rose
But you better not pick it
It only grows
When it's on the vine
A handful of thorns
And you know you'll miss
If you lose the love
When you say the word "mine"

I want to see what's never been seen
I want to live an age old dream
Come on boys, we can go together
Let's take the best right now

Take the best right now

Love is a rose
But you better not pick it
It only grows
When it's on the vine
A handful of thorns
And you know you'll miss
If you lose the love
When you say the word "mine"

Take the best right now

I want to go to an old hotel
Long ago in a western town
Pick me up as my feet are dragging
Give me a lift and I'll pay your wagon

Love is a rose
But you better not pick it
It only grows
When it's on the vine
A handful of thorns
And you know you'll miss
If you lose the love
When you say the word "mine"

Love is a rose
But you better not pick it
It only grows
When it's on the vine
A handful of thorns
And you know you'll miss
If you lose the love
When you say the word "mine"

Mine
Love is a rose
Mine
Love is a rose
Mine
Love is a rose
Mine
Love is a rose

Love is a rose
But you better not pick it
It only grows
When it's on the vine
A handful of thorns
And you know you'll miss
If you lose the love
When you say the word "mine"

Love is a rose
But you better not pick it
It only grows
When it's on the vine
A handful of thorns
And you know you'll miss
If you lose the love
When you say the word "mine"

Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
