Lisa Loeb › Lyrics › Love Is a Rose

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

I wanna see what's never been seen
I wanna live that age old dream
Come on boy, let's get together
Let's take the best right now

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

I wanna go to an old hoedown
Long ago in a western town
Pick me up when my feet are dragging
Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
Mine, mine, mine
