I'll do anything to prove to you I care for you
Even if I have to catch a falling star
And if there's anything you need, girl, I'll be there for you
'Cause to me you are the flower of my heart
Girl, I love you for being you
And the special way you always touch my heart

Girl, I'll be there if ever you call
I'll be your strength, your all and all

Roses are red (Ooh-ooh)
Violets are blue, baby
Well, if there's anything I'm certain of
It's I love you
Roses are red (Red)
Violets are blue, baby
Well, if there's anything I'm certain of
It's I love you

You're the only one that's ever been this good to me
That is why I'll always want you in my life
And when I think about the things that you have done for me
It explains why you're the apple of my eye
Girl, I trust you in all you do
And I'm so thankful that you've opened up your heart

And I'll be there if ever you call
I'll be your strength, your all and all

Roses are red (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Violets are blue, baby
Well, if there's anything I'm certain of
It's I love you
Roses are red
Violets are blue, baby
Well, if there's anything I'm certain of
It's I love you (It's I love you)


Everybody sing it, say yeah
(Yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah)
Baby (Baby)
Sing it like you mean it, say yeah
(Yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah)
Baby

Girl, I love you just for being you
And the special way you always touch my heart
Girl, I'll be there if ever you call
I'll be your strength, your all and all

Roses are red (Red)
Violets are blue, baby
Well, if there's anything I'm certain of
It's I love you
Roses are red (Roses are red)
Violets are blue, baby
Well, if there's anything I'm certain of
It's I love you

And my love will just get better
And my love will be love forever
Holdin', huggin', forever lovin'
Touchin', squeezin', forever pleasin'
We will be love together
No matter what kind of weather
If there's anything I'm certain of
Girl, it's you I truly love
(Yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah) Baby (Baby)
Sing it like you mean it, say yeah
(Yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah) Baby
Everybody sing it with me, yeah
(Yeah, yeah; yeah, yeah, yeah) Baby (Baby)
Sing it like you mean it, say yeah
(Yeah, yeah) Baby (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Ooh baby, yeah (Ooh)

Roses are red (Roses, violets)
Violets are blue, baby
Well, if there's anything I'm certain of
It's I love you
Roses are red (Red)
Violets are blue (Violets are blue), baby
Well, if there's anything, anything
It's I love you (I love, I love you)
