Lyrics: Nana Mouskouri. Love Is a Rose.

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love when you say the word mine

I want to see what's never been seen
I want to live an age old dream
Come along, boys, we can go together
Let's take the best right now take the best right now

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love when you say the word mine

Take the best right now

I want to go to an old hotel
Long ago in a western town
Pick me up 'cause my feet are draggin'
Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love when you say the word mine

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love when you say the word mine

Mine
Love is a rose
(Mine)
Love is a rose
(Mine)
Love is a rose
(Mine)
Love is a rose

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love when you say the word mine

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love when you say the word mine

Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
...

Mouskouri, Nana
