I Overlooked An Orchid Songtext
von Danny Paisley & The Southern Grass

An orchid is a flower that blooms so tenderly
To please the fairest lady of the land
When placed beside a blushing bride the rose cannot compare
But how was such as I to understand

I overlooked an orchid while searching for a rose
The orchid that I overlooked was you
The rose that I was searching for has proved to be untrue
The orchid now I find my dear was you


Now the rose has lost it′s color but the orchid's still the same
And I am left to face these lonely years
I didn′t see the orchid I was searching for a rose
And now I pay the price with bitter tears

I overlooked an orchid while searching for a rose
The orchid that I overlooked was you
The rose that I was searching for has proved to be untrue
The orchid now I find my dear was you

I overlooked an orchid...
