He still sends her roses on the 4th of July

They're always white roses

And she never asks why

She still doesn't know

Where he goes Thursday nights

But his wedding band rests

On the bedside that night

He was a soldier in the Vietnam war

He lost half his right leg whilst

Daydreaming of her

She lit a candle each holy hour

He was gone

You Were On My Mind

Was their favorite song

Love is a mystery

From birth 'till we die

It's cross words of a morning

By evening entwined

It's all that we dream of

Sometimes it's not right

Love is white roses and you never ask why

He's the hands of a draftsman

He's built a good life

She works for a season during IRS time

Two children they've had though

Their boy has now died

When they wake of each morning

He's still on their minds

Their friends would all tell you

They're like day and night

Their daughter's an actress

She is strong and she's bright

He meets with his pals from

The war Thursday nights

She still treasures those roses

Every 4th of July

Love is a mystery from birth till we die

It's cross words of a morning

By evening entwined

It's all that we dream of

Sometimes it's not right

Love is white roses

And you never ask why

Love is white roses every 4th of July
