Mystic Rose Rose Poet Quintain (English)

Love Me Like You Mean It

Love me like you mean it without pretending smile 
don't need a stroke of genius or conversation style 
your presence is required, the telephones a rue 
don't need you constantly but never just won't do 
love me like you mean it without pretending smile 

Love me like you care enough to give the very best 
believe in what I say and never put me to the test 
I'm always here, slow to anger quick in every turn
so share it now while I'm alive, no ashes in the urn 
love me like you mean it without pretending smile 

Love me like you mean it come raise me off the floor 
relationships aren't easy, you can't buy one at the store 
so here is your VIP, message me a signal see to see 
all is good when we're together drinking Red Rose tea
love me like you mean it, without pretending smile...
