I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden Along with the
sunshine There's gotta be a little rain some time When you take you gotta
give so live and let live Or let go oh-whoa-whoa-whoa I beg your
pardon I never promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things
like big diamond rings But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of
clover So you better think it over Well if sweet-talkin' you could make
it come true I would give you the world right now on a silver platter But
what would it matter So smile for a while and let's be jolly Love
shouldn't be so melancholy Come along and share the good times while we
can
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden Along
with the sunshine There's gotta be a little rain some time
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose
garden
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon But if that's
what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go But there's one
thing I want you to know You better look before you leap, still waters run
deep And there won't always be someone there to pull you out And you know
what I'm talkin' about So smile for a while and let's be jolly Love
shouldn't be so melancholy Come along and share the good times while we
can
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose
garden FADE Along with the sunshine There's gotta be a little rain
some time
