Doo doo doo

Doo doo doo

Doo doo doo There was a rose I knew

I met her once or twice before

She was a pretty sweet thing

Not the least bit insecure Then you came with your slick game

And played with her youth

Unashamed of the way you lied

Played with the truth, hey hey Mmm, she never knew what hit her, yeah

Steal her honey, then forget her

A rose, she wears a flower

Tryin' to forget about you Cause a rose is still a rose

Baby girl, you're still a flower

He can't lead you and then take you

Make you and then break you

Darlin', you hold the power Now believe me when I tell you

That I've been hurt myself

When he tells you that he loves you

And sees nobody else And now you're so tough tryin' to

Wear tight clothes and things

Tossin' and flossin'

Tryin' to fill the void heartbreak brings Oh yeah, when she faces the mirror, yeah

She's cryin', you can't hear her

Now the rose is still a rose

She wears a flower, tryin' to forget about you Cause a rose is still a rose

Baby girl, you're still a flower

He can't lead you and then take you

Make you and then break you

Baby girl, you hold the power See a rose is still a rose

Baby girl, you're still a flower

He can't lead you and then take you

Make you and then break you

Darlin', you hold the power Let your life be in the sunshine

Not the darkness of your sorrow

You may see you're all today

When you know it'll come tomorrow Tough to be, but life ain't over

Just because your man is gone

Girl, love yourself and love to love

Cause without him your life goes on Without him your life goes on

Without him your life goes on Cause a rose is still a rose

Baby girl, you're still a flower

He can't lead you and then take you

Make you and then break you

Baby girl, you hold the power See a rose is still a rose

Baby girl, you're still a flower

He can't lead you and then take you

Make you and then break you

Darlin', you hold the power
