My Smiling Rose

Spinning wheels go round and round

I've read that love
Is like the weather in our lives
And behind the storms
There's a sun that always shines
Who knows where winds may blow
Or when the clouds would go
Somebody told me yesterday
Love is a crying Rose...

And as time circles
And seasons change
A summer's joy turns Autumn
Then it snows and rains

Spinning wheels go round and round

I've heard before
That love's a memory of past lives
And some dreams awake
While others never see the light
But in this heart of mine
I could love you 'till the end of time
And no matter how the weather shows

You will always be...
My Smiling Rose

Spinning wheels go round and round
