Don’t Try to Close a Rose

[Verse 1] They say that every thing you do Turns out all wrong And that you're bound to lose And you love me too much Take me along [Chorus] Ah baby, don't ever try to close a rose After it's bloomed to the tune Of a spring time day It won't work any way 'Cos once it knows the sun, it grows And keeps on growing Knowing it must say goodbye To the field and the sky [Verse 2] So don't you worry about me You could never make me unhappy 'Cause we both have been touched By the spring time sun We already won [Bridge] As long as you want me I'll be right there But with a life time of hard times We gotta love Babe, we can share [Chorus] Ah baby, don't ever try to close a rose After it's bloomed to the tune Of a spring time day It won't work any way 'Cos once it knows the sun it grows And keeps on growing Knowing it must say goodbye To the field and the sky [Outro] Don't ever try to close a rose After it's bloomed to the tune Of a spring time day It won't work any way -
