I'Ll Give You a Red Rose

I’ll give you a red rose a day 
If your love you will give to me 
Every day of your life, you’ll see, 
I’ll give you a red rose a day. 

As we grow loving in marriage 
With two kids to bring up in life, 
Working to keep it together, 
I’ll give you a red rose each day. 

When we retire and get older 
Up country or out on the seas, 
Together we’ll love each other -
I‘ll give you a red rose that day. 

And when last rites they say for you, 
I’m standing alone, incomplete. 
They’ll lower you down and I’ll cry 
As I give you your last red rose.
