WOULD YOU SETTLE FOR ROSES
(Bob Morris / Larry Farmer)


Freddie Hart - 1971

Susan Raye - 1972
Kenny Vernon - 1973



 

I'd like to give you fancy things like diamond rings
And a mansion on the hill with an ocean view
I'd like to give you all the world, but it's not mine to give
All I have is my heart and a love that's true

Would you settle for roses
And a cottage for two
Would you settle for roses
And all my love for you

I don't have fame and fortune like some of your friends
But I'll do the very best that I can do
And I promise you all my love without an end
'Cause my darlin', I want to live my life with you

Would you settle for roses
And a cottage for two
Would you settle for roses
And all my love for you
