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 began

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 to 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
