When I awoke this mornin'
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 goo-oodbye
You couldn't tell me to my face
That you had found another
And it never crossed my mind you'd be-ee untrue
So today as I lay sleepin'
You left me here alone
And you said goodbye
With a single yellow rose
::: 1:47
Did ya know that yellow roses mean you love someone forever ~
And did ya know they'd say forever I'll be-ee 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-y mind you'd be untrue
So today as I lay sleepin'
You left me here alone
And you said goodbye
With a single yellow rose
Yes you said goodbye with a single yellow rose
When I awoke this mornin'
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 goo-oodbye
You couldn't tell me to my face
That you had found another
And it never crossed my mind you'd be-ee untrue
So today as I lay sleepin'
You left me here alone
And you said goodbye
With a single yellow rose
