Bouquet of Roses

(Steve Nelson - Bob Hillard)



I'm sending you a big bouquet of roses

One for every time you broke my heart

And as the door of love between us closes

Tears will fall like petals when we part.



I begged you to be different

But you'll always be untrue

I'm tired of forgiving

Now there's nothing left to do.



So I'm sending you a big bouquet of roses

One for every time you broke my heart.

You made our lover's lane a road of sorrow

Till at last we have to say goodbye

You're leaving me to face each new tomorrow

With a broken heart you taught to cry.



I know that I should hate you

after all you've put me through

But how can I be bitter

When I'm still in love with you.



So I'm sending you a big bouquet of roses

One for every time you broke my heart...
