Lyric The Only Rose

(Steve Wariner/Steve Wilkinson)

A little red-headed girl
Stood at the mirror
Studying her face
She didn t like her nose
And all of those freckles
She d love to erase
Her inventory told the story
And from where she stood
There s so much she would change
Oh if she could

As she said to herself
I d be anyone else
If it were up to me
Her mom walked in
And said with a grin
One day girl you ll see

There s a million stars
In the summer sky
And each one has its name
There s a million snowflakes
In the wintertime
But no two are quite the same
And there s something
You can t see right now
But one day girl you ll know
In a field that s full of daisy s
You re the only rose

You can talk about clothes
Talk about make-up
That s a matter of style
And I bet Mona Lisa s mother
Heard her daughter say
She didn t like her smile
What s inside you just can t hide
Cause beauty runs so deep
And one day you ll knock
Some young man right off his feet
