Buy Me A Rose Lyrics - Dance With My Father - Luther Vandross

He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants 

But it tears her apart 'cause nothing's for her heart 

He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight 

If he could only read her mind, she'd say 

Buy me a rose 

Call me from work 

Open a door for me what would it hurt? 

Show me you love me by the look in your eyes 

These are the little things 

I need the most in my life 

Yeaaah 

Now the days have grown 

to years of feeling all alone 

As she sits and wonders if all she's doin is wrong 

Cos lately she'd try anything just to turn his head 

Would it make a difference if she'd say, if she'd say: 

Buy me a rose 

Call me from work 

Open the door for me what would it hurt? 

Show me you love me by the look in your eyes 

These are the little things 

I need the most in my life 

And the more that he lives 

The less that he tries 

To show her the love that he holds inside 

And the more that she gives 

The more that he sees 

This is the story of you 

and me 

So I bought you a rose 

On the way home from work 

to open the door to a heart that I hurt 

And I hoped you noticed this look in my eyes 

cause im gonna make things right 

For the rest of your life(rest of your life) 

And I'm gonna hold you tonight, tonight 

do all those little things 

for the rest of your life.
