The Color of Roses - Beth Nielsen Chapman

I held you close to me

Once in a distant dream

Far from the shores of my fear

I sailed on the ocean where

All I imagined could happen

And now you are here

It’s so hard to touch

What is out of our hands

To know and to trust

What the heart understands

Only the ones who believe

Ever see what they dream

Ever dream what comes true

Life gives us magic and

Life brings us tragedy

Everyone suffers some loss

Still we have faith in it

Childlike hope

There’s a reason that outweighs the cost

And gravity throws

All these rules in our way

And sometimes the sprit

Refuses to play

Only the ones who believe

Ever see what they dream

Ever dream what comes true

And oh, love

Turn me around in your arms

And in this dream we share

Let us not miss one kiss

And add my regrets

To the tears in the rain

For that’s what the color

Of roses contain

Only the ones who believe

Ever see what they dream

Ever dream

Ever dream what comes true
