Lyrics
She opened the box filled with red roses
Found a card attached that said
Twelve beautiful flowers for a woman who towers
Way above the rest
She smiled, kissed me and said thank you
But for what occasion are these flowers for
I said it's my way of saying you're the one I truly adore
There is no one else I admire more
It's for all your bedtime stories when you use to tuck me in at night
And the times I came home crying, you made everything alright
It's for never giving up on me even when I let you down
It's for not appreciating you, like I do now
She found a vase and placed the flowers in
Arranged them all one by one
When she came to notice only eleven roses
And wondered how come
SHE TURNED TO ME SMILED AND SAID
I ONLY SEE ELEVEN ROSES HERE
I SAID MOMMA YOU MISSED ONE
GO LOOK IN THE MIRROR
THE 12TH ROSE WILL APPEAR
TAG
I love you
More than you'll ever know
Forever love you so
More than words can show
