When I awoke this mornin'
Imagine my surprise
On my pillow lay a single yellow rose
I smile but when I read the card
The teardrops filled my eyes
It was the only way that you
could say goodbye
You could'nt tell me to my face
That you had found another
And it never crossed my mind
you'd be untrue
So today as I lay sleepin'
You left me here alone
And you said goodbye
With a single yellow rose
?instrumental?
Did ya know that yellow roses
mean you love someone forever
And did ya know they'd say
forever I'll be true
Why did you have to go astray
Leave, and throw our love away
Why did you leave a single yellow rose
You could'nt tell me to my face
That you had found another
And it never crossed my mind
you'd be untrue
So today as I lay sleepin'
You left me here alone
And you said goodbye with
a single yellow rose
Yes you said goodbye with
a single yellow rose
