Like red on a rose

When your lips first smiled at me

I was captured instantly

To each his own

Like blue in the sky

The gaze of your willing eyes

Touched something deep inside

The truth be known

That I love you like all little children love pennies

And I love you 'cause I know that I can't do anything wrong

You're where I belong

Like red on a rose

And I love you like all little children love pennies

And I love you like good times of which I've known many

And I love you 'cause I know you give me a heart of my own

You make my blood flow

Like red on a rose
