Rocks and Roses

I found three rocks shaped like hearts

I kept these hearts of stone

I know someday a heart more real

Will beat close to my own

I cut a rose, it lay in wait

A deep red mystery

I know someday someone will find

And bring that rose to me

These rocks and roses

Beautiful and strong, they mark the places

Until love comes along

Until true love comes along

I hum a song lovely as

A melody can be

And still not as sweet

As love someday will sing that song to me

I turn my face into the wind

It blows so hard and free

I know someday there'll be someone

To hold and shelter me

These rocks and roses

Beautiful and strong, they mark the places

'Til love comes along

Until true love comes along

Oh, rocks and roses

Beautiful and strong, they mark the places

Until love comes along

These rocks and roses

In beauty and in song, they mark the places

'Til love comes along

Until true love comes along
