Love Matters

I spent my life working hard Built a house paved with slabs Garden grass with rainbow roses Show house bank account and cars A lady from the village below Walking passed my house real slow Vibrant colors big smile summer time A pleasant feeling came over me I made my way to my garden gate A force an impulse feeling brave We talked for a while I liked her style Her eyes could shine a thousand miles My heart was captured by this soul We went on a date that never ended I love you so sweet rose where love flows Love matters when the garden grows
