An Occasional Rose lyrics

It`s so hard to fight a memory
Only time can be a healer of the past
And the thorns of love are many
When they`re clingin` to a love that didn`t last
Yesterday is over and his memory
Will fade away with time
So I`ll accept a rose and just be patient
Till all your love is mine

I can take the thorns if there`s
Just an occasional rose
I can bear the pain for a while
Even though my heart knows
You`ll be thinkin` of him when
We`re makin` love, it always shows
I can take the thorns if there`s
Just an occasional rose

The road of love is rocky and
Behind the blue sky there`s a thousand storms
But a smile or a touch or a love word`s
Like a rose among the thorns
When you say you love me
It erases all the worries on my mind
`Cause you`ll be with me tonight
For a little while his memory`s left behind

I can take the thorns if there`s
Just an occasional rose
I can bear the pain for a while
Even though my heart knows
You`ll be thinkin` of him when
We`re makin` love, it always shows
I can take the thorns if there`s
Just an occasional rose

I can take the thorns if there`s
Just an occasional rose
