when i woke this morning imagine my surprise on my pillow laid a single yellow rose i smiled but when i read the card the tear drops filled my eyes it was the only way that you could say good-bye you couldn't 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 sleeping you left me here alone and you sad good bye with a single yellow rose did you know that yellow roses mean you'll love someone forever and did you know they say forever i'll be true why did you have to go astay and throw our love away
why did you leave a single yellow rose you couldn't tell me to my face that you had found another and it never crossed my mind you'd be untrue so today as i laid sleeping you left me here alone and you said good bye with a single yellow rose
