[Verse]

I just received, sweetheart, your yellow roses

You tell me that they mean we're all through

You tell me that tonight your heart is broken

But you should know I was never untrue

[Chorus]

I'll place them near your photograph and as the petals fall

They'll hide from you my lonely tears that shouldn't fall at all

Then they will slowly fade away and die

But I'll still love you though yellow roses say goodbye

[Steel Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

I'll place them near your photograph and as the petals fall

They'll hide from you my lonely tears that shouldn't fall at all

Then they will slowly fade away and die

But I'll still love you though yellow roses say goodbye
