With Roses I Come

With a basket of roses I will come
I will lay each petal at your sweet feet
Create a pathway into love’s retreat
Take my hand, will you walk with me, succumb.
Succumb to a love you have never known
As red as the rose, my heart beats for you
Give me a lifetime to prove my love true
Follow the petals to sit on your throne.

Will you be my queen, let me do your will
My heart will be only yours forever
It shall be yours until its beat is still
Forsaking you for another, never
With a basket of roses I will come
To be your servant in this endeavor.
