Just a Faded Petal from a Beautiful Bouquet lyrics

(Just a faded petal from a beautiful bouquet) Darling I recieved your last long letter And in close I found the petal from the rose Then I picked and placed it in you your head dear When we courted neath the moonbeams long ago. You said that you can understand today dear Why in tears I told you when you went away Now you're leaving and I'll be so lonely Like a faded petal from a beautiful bouquet. --- Instrumental --- You tell me that tonight you're broken hearted Your happiness in life sweetheart you say it's through And that you regret the day you left me And broke my heart to change an old love for the new. With aching heart and tears I write this letter Old mem'ries I could never never cast away I still love you and you'll find me waiting Like a faded petal from a beautiful bouquet...
