If people dressed in colours According to their deeds Then many leading men Would dress in black And lots of unsung heroes Who never made a name Would be walking round With gold upon their backs ------- CHORUS: Heaven knows You're a rose And the love inside your heart Just grows and grows No one sees I suppose That it's something only me And heaven knows ------- If people were like flowers Imagine what you'd see Thorns in highest places Where the roses ought to be And down along the hedgerows Among the grasses tall You would find the sweetest Roses of them all ------- REPEAT CHORUS: If people were like music Some hearts would never sing Think of all the happiness A song like yours could bring You fill the life I'm living With love and harmony And you're the sweetest song I'll ever see ------- REPEAT CHORUS TWICE: That it's something only me And heaven knows.
