Rose Garden

You never promised me a rose garden
You never said it would be easy
You never promised me a leisure lifetime
You only said you'd never leave meWell, I never took the time to realize
How much I needed love in order to survive
I was so spoiled, a princess in my time
And your love was so deep and mine so blindYou never promised me a ring made out of diamonds
A band of gold you said was all you could buy
You never said I'd be a rich man's lady
And oh my darling no, you never liedWell, I never took the time to realize
How much I needed love in order to survive
But I was so spoiled, a princess in my time
And your love was so deep and mine so blindAnd now you're gone and I'm alone and I'm so lonely
Nothing seems to be the same
One day I turned around and you no longer loved me
In my life there's been a big changeNow I've a big house
With pillars standing tall all around
Yeah, and I've got a garden
And it's got roses dangling down to the groundYes, and I've got money, men to love me and acres of land
Well, I've got all these things, all these things but a small gold band
On my finger on my left hand, on my finger on my left hand
No, no, you never promised, you never promised me a rose garden
No, you never promised
