people say dew on a rose
is a beautiful sight to see
and i have to admit it's true
especially to someone like me.

but have you ever seen a teardrop
fallen from eyes of blue
onto the red rose she has
given from a love so true

it wasn't a tear of sadness
just the opposite, you know.
the sweetest sight i've ever seen
is a teardrop on a rose.
