Tommy Overstreet - Seed Before The Rose Lyrics

We were both so young and impatient at the time
We thought we were in love so we closed our minds
When they told us
Love is like a rose it doesn't just appear
Give it time to grow or it ends with tears

There's gotta be a seed before the rose
Tender loving care makes it sweeter as it grows
There's gotta be love before the ties that bound
Or the rose will end with petals on the ground

But we paid no mind to the things that he have been told
And we pledged our love with a band of gold
On our fingers
Now when I look back all that I can see
Is heartache and regret and it's clear to me

There's gotta be a seed before the rose...
There's gotta be a seed before the rose
There's gotta be a seed before the rose
There's gotta be a seed before the rose
