Lucky Hodnett - Love is Not Always a Rose Lyrics

(Ruthie Steele, Kathy Stiehel-Helms & Ken Knight / BMI)

(VERSE1)Life is not always a rainbow, Love is not always a rose
Sometimes it rains on our hopes and our dreams
And sometimes the winter winds blow
I used to think winning was easy, but I’ve listened and I‘ve come to know
That life is not always a rainbow, and love is not always a rose

(Chorus) Some get to run for the roses, some have to crawl through the thorns
Some people bless every day they’re alive, while some curse the day they were born
I just try to stay to dry when it’s raining, and stay warm when the winter winds blow
I know life is not always a rainbow, and love is not always a rose


(VERSE2)Some folks complain when it’s raining, about the little things life puts them through
But that’s only on the job training, for the big things that life throws at you
I’ve listened and I’ve learned my lessons, now I’ll be alright cause I know
That life is not always a rainbow, and love is not always a rose

(repeat chorus)

(tag)I know life is not always a rainbow, and love is not always a rose
