Marty Robbins - 18 Yellow Roses lyrics
[Marty Robbins - 18 Yellow Roses lyrics]
Eighteen yellow roses came today
Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet
When the boy came to the door
I didn't know what to say
When eighteen yellow roses came today
I opened up the box to see what it said
I couldn't believe my eyes when I had read
"Though you belong to another
I love you anyway"
Yes eighteen yellow roses came today
I never doubted your love for a minute
I always thought that you could be true
But now this box and the flowers in it
I guess there's nothin' left for me to do
But ask to meet the boy
That's done this thing
To see if he's made plans to buy you a ring
'Cause eighteen yellow roses will
Fade and die someday
But a father's love will never fade away
Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet
When the boy came to the door
I didn't know what to say
When eighteen yellow roses came today
I opened up the box to see what it said
I couldn't believe my eyes when I had read
"Though you belong to another
I love you anyway"
Yes eighteen yellow roses came today
I never doubted your love for a minute
I always thought that you could be true
But now this box and the flowers in it
I guess there's nothin' left for me to do
But ask to meet the boy
That's done this thing
To see if he's made plans to buy you a ring
'Cause eighteen yellow roses will
Fade and die someday
But a father's love will never fade away
