To show her the love that he holds inside
Yeah, 'cause lately she'd try anything just to turn his head
Open the door for me, what would it hurt
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
This is the story of you and me
Buy me a rose, call me from work
These are the little things, I need the most in my life, my life
Would it make a difference if she said, if she said
As she sits and wonders if all she's doin' is wrong
Open a door for me, what would it hurt
These are the little things, I need the most in my life
And the more that he lives the less that he tries
'Cause I'm gonna make things right for the rest of your life, rest of your life
And I'm gonna hold you tonight, tonight
Yeah, he pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight
So I bought you a rose on the way home from work
And I hope you notice this look in my eyes
Now the days have grown to years of feelin' all alone
And the more that she gives the more that he sees
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
To open the door to a heart that I hurt
Buy me a rose, call me from work
If he could only read her mind, she'd say
