Blush

I suppose a single rose is pretty as it gets And when the lights go down at night, I love the quietness I love shy glances, slow romances And hats that hide a kiss Let's you and me go back in time And find the things we miss When hands were gentle and words were kind And love could wait a long, long time And private matters held their hush And grooms were gallant and brides would blush Does it seem a silly dream played back in black and white? Pearls and gloves and hymns of love The lines of wrong and right Well, let's hush the cynic for just a minute And let the dreamers dare To dream of love that never fails Oh, won't you take me there? When hands were gentle and words were kind And love could wait a long, long time And private matters held their hush And grooms were gallant and brides would blush Shut the shutters, power down Let the world spin back around To deep respect and no regrets The dignity of you and me When hands were gentle and words were kind And love could wait a long, long time And private matters held their hush And grooms were gallant and brides would blush
