I gave you a precious white rose In a day like the 4th of May You caressed me with your eyes And I knew, love was here to stay Because all the dreams I had for you What a sweet smile on your face Life was your first warm embrace I gave you a precious white rose My white rose became your white rose And the days came without tomorrow We shared all the moments of sorrow Then you stepped on my precious white rose You stepped on my hopes and my dreaming And I lost my sense of living I gave my heart in this white rose You stepped on my precious white rose You stepped on my hopes and my dreaming And I lost my sense of living I gave my heart in this white rose You stepped on my precious white rose
