26 Oct 19 - 10:13 AM (#4015526) Subject: Lyr Add: BOUQUET OF ROSES (Eddy Arnold) From: Jim Dixon You can hear this at the Internet Archive: BOUQUET OF ROSES Words and music by Steve Nelson & Bob Hilliard. As recorded by Eddy Arnold and his Tennessee Plowboys, 1947. (RCA Victor 20-2806-B) I’m sending you a big bouquet of roses: One for ev’ry time you broke my heart; And as the door of love between us closes, Tears will fall like petals when we part. I begged you to be diff’rent, but you’ll always be untrue. I’m tired of forgivin’; now there’s nothin’ left to do; So I’m sending you a big bouquet of roses: One for ev’ry time you broke my heart. You made our lovers’ lane a road of sorrow Till at last we had to say goodbye. You’re leaving me to face each new tomorrow With a broken heart you taught to cry. I know that I should hate you after all you’ve put me through, But how can I be bitter when I’m still in love with you? So I’m sending you a big bouquet of roses: One for ev’ry time you broke my heart. |
