Rose Garden Lyrics
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes
When you take you got to give so live and let live or let go
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growing on stocks of clover so better think it over
Well if sweet talking you would make it come true
I'd give you the world right now on a silver platter but what would it matter
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go

But there's one thing I want you to know
You better look before you leap still water runs deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out and you know what I'm talkin' about
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come on and share the good times while we can
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes
