Lyrics
(Intro)
(Verse 1)
Just when I had my life together
Someone mentioned your name
I thought we'd parted forever
Your excuses were just a game
(Chorus)
Today I picked a rose in mem'ry of you
I placed it on my heart and said goodbye
For the beauty of this flower with it's dew
Will soon fade away and surely die
(Verse 2)
I love you still but cannot be with you
I must set my heart free to see this through
There's no more chances for you and me
(Chorus)
Today I picked a rose in mem'ry of you
I placed it on my heart and said goodbye
For the beauty of this flower with it's dew
Will soon fade away and surely die
(Instrumental)
(Chorus)
Today I picked a rose in mem'ry of you
I placed it on my heart and said goodbye
For the beauty of this flower with it's dew
Will soon fade away and surely die
(Tag)
Will soon fade away and surely die
