If I were a bramble and you were a rose I'd stay right beside you so nobody'd know The essence of living is helping what grows If I were a bramble and you were a rose There'd be more flowers surrounding the trees There'd be more sunshine to warm when you please There'd be more rainbows to colour clouds flow If I were a bramble and you were a rose Take me O take me the petals did cry Without your loving I surely will die Replied the bramble I'm not one of those I'm but the seedling through which darkness flows I hold no honey I carry no seed I'll stand right by you for when you're in need Said then the crimson who's no more alone I'll give you everything as you're now my home If I were a bramble and you were a rose I'd stay right beside you so nobody'd know The essence of living is helping what grows If I were a bramble and you were a rose If I were a bramble and you were a rose If I were a bramble and you were a rose
