What was I thinking when I stole a rose
What feelings in my heart arose
What was I thinking when I stole a rose
That it would not affect the plant so?
The flower brightened up my day
And I had so much to say
I failed to think the pain it caused
On I went on my way
Someone stole the rose from me
And now I know truly
The cheat the thief
Who I gave the key
Has stolen my treasure from me
This has ended so unexpectedly
I am sorry rose
I uprooted you
I am sorry rose
To the occasion I arose
I know your pain now
I shall return it to you
I will get it from the thief
The delay is only but brief
Sorry rose, I have been asleep
As womankind lost
We should have been united
And not let sin be true
