A Symbol of Our Love
I long to see this love we have blossom daily with each passing day
The beauty of which we can't see but we can feel it all the same
I love it when the sun comes up and the birds sing sweetly too
This rose will be on our bench every day of the year I spend with you.
This bench of love is reserved for us for many years to come
Sitting here now I say to you that I want you for the rest of our lives
The rose is a symbol of all that is pure, our trust, our hope and love
Two hearts shall not be broken when they've been blessed by God above.
I promise you that each year will be better than the one before
A rose I’ll leave on this bench as each year we’re married passes by
I’m always going to be here for you my darling you’re the one I adore
This rose represents the longing in my heart, I want you forevermore.
To show just how much I care I will plant a rose bush here just for you
When I look at our little bench each year and think of how it all began
I'll remember with pride, that eve I proposed and you said “I will marry you”
As I slipped on the ring, you'd tears in your eyes, as the moon came into view.
When times catches up, grey hair sets in, grandchildren running wild at our side
I hope you'll be by my side on our bench with our roses still growing with love
But if you're not with me,It won't be hard to remember that night of my life
When I proposed one beautiful eve, we married and were husband and wife.
