Lyrics
I once saw a rose lying in the corner of the old garage behind the house I lived in years ago / I wondered where it came from, the stories it might tell me / Had it passed between two lovers on a night so long ago? / I once saw a rose and thought about two lovers / Had they sparkled like a diamond, did their love burn shiny bright? / Did they promise they would love each other ‘till the end of always? / Did they burn out like a shooting star on a July Texas night? / (Chorus) Thinking ‘bout love, love, love, thinking ‘bout love / It keeps a poor heart beating; it prob’ly hung the moon above / There’s nothing I can tell you the poets haven’t said already / Here’s to the star-crossed lovers out there somewhere / Thinking ‘bout love / I once saw a rose lying in the corner of the old garage behind the house I lived in years ago / I wondered where it came from, the story it might tell me / Had it passed between two lovers on a night so long ago? / (Chorus) Thinking ‘bout love, love, love, thinking ‘bout love / It keeps a poor heart beating; it prob’ly hung the moon above / I left the old rose lying in the corner where I found it / Here’s to the star-crossed lovers out there somewhere / Thinking ‘bout love.
