Yellow Roses

Hello, you said the day we met
Handing me a yellow rose
You asked me out and to your surprise
And to mine I said I'd go

I thought it so romantic
And I found you sweet and bold
Though we'd only met
I still said yes to a single yellow rose

And for years to come
You were the one to sleep with me at night
To laugh and talk and share my thoughts
And hold me when I'd cry

And on every rare occasion
And no good reason too
A big bouquet or a single yellow rose
Was sent from you

Yellow roses, the colour of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go?
Yellow roses, are you sending your new love?
My bright yellow rosebuds
I still love you so

I never see a yellow rose
When I don't think of you
It's still my favourite flower
Though the yellow's turned to blue

The day you left, my teardrops fell
Upon your farewell note
You said goodbye like you said hello
With a single yellow rose

Yellow roses, the colour of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go?
Yellow roses, are you sending your new love?
My bright yellow rosebuds
I still love you so

Yellow roses, the colour of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go?
Yellow roses, are you sending your new love?
My bright yellow rosebuds
I still love you so
