[Verse 1]
The first time that he saw her
He knew everything had changed
Overnight, love started blooming
Like the first rose of spring

[Verse 2]
Auburn hair like a sunrise
Sweetest smile he'd ever seen
Butterflies, they danced around on her
Like the first rose of spring

[Chorus]
Summertime would've never started
And wintertime would never end
She colored his life, opened his eyes
To things he'd never dream
Without the first rose of spring

[Verse 3]
Gave him children like a garden
They gave 'em all the love they'd need
To grow up strong, she made a home
And every year, he'd bring
Her the first rose of spring
[Verse 4]
The last time he saw her
He knew everything had changed
He said goodbye
And let the tears fall like rain
On the first rose of spring
