Lyrics
If You Love Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you love me, if you love, love, love me,
Plant a rose for me.
And if you think you'll love me for a long, long time,
Plant an apple tree.
The sun will shine, the wind will blow,
The rain will fall and the tree will grow,
And whether you comes, or whether you goes,
I'll have an apple, and I'll have a rose,
Lovely to bite, and nice to my nose.
And every juicy nibble will be
A sweet reminder of the time you loved me
And planted a rose for me,
And an apple tree.
