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. --- Instrumental --- The rose has lost its color but the orchid is the same And I'm alone 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...
