Lyrics Forvever Like the Rose - Seals & Crofts

Forvever Like the Rose

Forever like the rose, I suppose that’s the way to be
Fresh and ever growing, always showing lots of beauty to the world
I know it’s not an easy task.
All I ask is that you try
Try for me, be like the flower, within its hour of final glory
Open up and let the sunshine touch your heart.
And show the world what you can
be
If you are free, free to grow, free to grow.
Forever like the rose
The rose is worn above the heart.
The symbol of its love is showing
Growing in the park, a secret for a lover’s knowing
The centerpiece of life will always be unfolding its cardinal petals
For the dew of children’s tears.
To grow a new rose
Forever like the rose.
Oh, forever like the rose
Forever like the rose, I suppose that’s the way to be
Strong and ever giving, always living with a purpose and a goal
To blossom day to day, then someday to fade away
Forever like the rose
