One Red Rose

The rain came down on the tin roof



Hardly a sound was left from the birthday party



The kitchen light fell asleep on the bedroom floor



Me and her were talking softer



Than all the time before I lost her



Picture sat on top of the chest of drawers



One red rose in the Bible



Pressed between the holy alphabet



Probably wouldn't believe you if you told me



But what I never knew I never will forget



Rainy nights get dark real early



Her dress was soft and her hair was curly



We danced around the table to the old banjo



Rainy nights were made for lovers



We lay there still beneath the covers



And I ain't never felt like that before



One red rose in the Bible



Pressed between the holy alphabet



Probably wouldn't believe you if you told me



But what I never knew I never will forget



One red rose in the Bible



Pressed between the holy alphabet



Probably wouldn't believe you if you told me



But what I never knew I never will forget



What I never knew I never will forget
