Yellow Rose Songtext
von The Lost Trailers

There′s an old man standing by a pond
Smiling like the world could do no wrong
Cool water runs against his toes
As he holds the petals of a yellow rose

Years ago in Central Park
He and his woman disappeared in the dark
Underneath the city's glow
They left the petals of a yellow rose

So would you be my yellow rose?
Would you stand beside me when the wild wind blows?
I′m only asking 'cause I'd like to know
Oh, would you be my yellow rose?


They came in on a Jersey train
He took her hand and said, "I love you, Jane"
She saw the passing of a garden′s row and said
"I′d be yours if I had one of those"

So would you be my yellow rose?
Would you wake beside me in the morning glow?
I'm only asking ′cause I've got to know
Oh, would you be my yellow rose?

The water′s still but the woman's gone
But the old man ain′t moving on
'Cause there are moments when all you need
Is a cool pond and a memory

So would you be my yellow rose?
Would you stand beside me when the wild wind blows?
I'm only asking ′cause I′ve got to know
Oh, would you be my yellow rose?


So would you be my yellow rose?
Would you wake up beside me in the morning glow?
I'm only asking ′cause I've got to know
Would you be my yellow rose?
