He works hard to give her all He thinks she needs

Three car garage

Her own credit card

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

Now the days have gone

Two years of feeling all alone

She can't help but wonder what

she's doing wrong

Lately she'd try anything to turn his head

Would it make a difference if she said:

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

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 a 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 hope you notice this look in my eyes

Cause I'm gonna make things right

For the rest of your life

And I'm gonna hold you tonight

And do all those little things for the rest of your lif
