Ooh
Ooh
He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants
He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants
But it tears her apart 'cause nothing's for her heart
But it tears her apart 'cause nothing's for her heart
He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight
He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight
If he could only read her mind, she'd say
If he could only read her mind, she'd say
Buy me a rose
Buy me a rose
Call me from work
Call me from work
Open a door for me what would it hurt?
Open a door for me what would it hurt?
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
These are the little things
These are the little things
I need the most in my life
I need the most in my life
Now the days have grown
Now the days have grown
To years of feeling all alone
To years of feeling all alone
As she sits and wonders if all she's doin' wrong
As she sits and wonders if all she's doin' wrong
'Cause lately she'd try anything just to turn his head
'Cause lately she'd try anything just to turn her head
Ooh, would it make a difference if she'd say, if she'd say
Ooh, would it make a difference if she'd say, if she'd say
Buy me a rose
Buy me a rose
Call me from work
Call me from work
Open the door for me what would it hurt?
Open the door for me what would it hurt?
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
These are the little things
These are the little things
I need the most in my life
I need the most in my life
And the more that he lives
And the more that he lives
The less that he tries
The less that he tries
To show her the love that he holds inside
To show her the love that he holds inside
And the more that she gives
And the more that she gives
The more that he sees
The more that he sees
This is the story of you
This is the story of you
And me
And me
So I bought you a rose
So I bought you a rose
On the way home from work
On the way home from work
To open the door to a heart that I hurt
To open the door to a heart that I hurt
And I hoped you noticed this look in my eyes
And I hoped you noticed this look in my eyes
'Cause I'm gonna make things right
'Cause I'm gonna make things right
For the rest of your life
For the rest of your life
I'm gonna hold you tonight, tonight
I'm gonna hold you tonight, tonight
Do all those little things
Do all those little things
For the rest of your life
For the rest of your life
For your life, ooh
For your life, ooh
