A Single Yellow Rose Songtext
von Isla Grant

When I awoke this morning, imagine my surprise
On my pillow lay a single yellow rose
I smiled, but when I read the card, the teardrops filled my eyes
It was the only way that you could say goodbye

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 said goodbye 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 astray, leave 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 lay sleeping, you left me here alone
And you said goodbye with a single yellow rose
Yes, you said goodbye with a single yellow rose
