Lyrics
Red Roses
1.
I love red roses, they mean so much to me
Every time that I went wrong, they’re the first things that I’d see
I was sorry by the dozen, staying silent in defeat
I love red roses, their eloquence is sweet
Chorus:
Red, red roses, they always work for me
Deep, red roses, they always set me free
If I could afford to, I’d say sorry every day
I love red roses, they know just what to say
2.
I love red roses, they’ve really grown on me
I grow them in my garden now, where the wild grass used to be
I cut them back in winter, so they will come again
From bud to bloom they thrill me and they help to ease my pain
Chorus:
Red, red roses, they always work for me
Deep, red roses, they always set me free
If I could afford to, I’d say sorry every day
I love red roses, they know just what to say
Bridge:
Blindsided by that drunkard, next moment you were gone
So I bring red roses, though I can't right that wrong
Chorus:
Red, red roses, they always work for me
Deep, red roses, they always set me free
If I could afford to, I’d say sorry every day
I love red roses, they know just what to say
