Well a long time ago a little girl loved a boy   And it filled her heart with so much joy   One day he left her didn't tell her goodbye   Broke the little girl's heart and made the poor little girl cry   And the rose was born from the tears that fell   All heaven cried with her that's the story they tell   When you see a rainbow after a storm   You know a love has died a little girl cried and a rose's been born   (And a rose was born)      Well time moved along a little boy met a girl   And she captured his heart and set him in a whirl   One day she left him didn't tell him goodbye   Broke the little boy's heart and made the poor little boy cry   But a thorn was born from the tears he shed   And down through the ages to the rose has been wed   And just a reminder a sign meant to worn   A little boy lied a little boy cried and a thorn was born   (And a thorn was born)   That's a a story of a rose and a thorn that's a a story of a rose and a thorn   That's a a story of a rose and a thorn
