"Send Me No Roses" lyrics

Send Me No Roses

Send me no roses
Please no more roses
Your roses can't hold me
What I need most is you

Without fail
Everyday
Since you went away
The doorbell rings
You're sending roses again

In my room
All petals fall
But, darling
That's not all
I read your card
Then a million tears begin

Though the love
We once knew
Still lives inside of you
The one
Who holds you now
Won't set you free

To see me
You don't dare
But roses say you care
Tell her goodbye
Then please return to me

But send me no roses
Please no more roses
Roses are red I know
But through my tears they look blue

Send me no roses
Please no more roses
Your roses can't hold me
What I need most is you
