Purple Rose
Whatever sort of entity out there that visits me with songwriting inspiration lives in the 1960s, I'm sure of it. This song is about as classic country Americana as you're going to get. Though it's in no way derivative, in my opinion. I think it's a very unique and original take on a topic that's been written about plenty of times.

Wunschliste
It's the rarest kind of flower
Lord, it don't bloom every spring
The thorns are twice as long
So it's quick to make you bleed
But it's beauty's like no other
That you've ever seen before
The women say that if he loves you
He'll give you that purple rose
(Chorus)
A purple rose
A woman knows
What this gift means to a girl
Who has been given it before
Says a man swears to be faithful
And to love her ever-more
And he makes this promise
With a purple rose
As the petals wilt and fall
You might think the beauty fades
But the kind of love it signals
Well, that just don't go away
Lovers hold on tight forever
Which flies by, I do suppose
Though if the grip should ever loosen
I'll hunt and pick a purple rose
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Red might say I love you
Yellow and white for different moods
But the purple rose I give
Says that I'll love on only you
(Chorus)
