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 forgivin', now there's nothin' left to do
So i'm sending you a big bouquet of roses
one for every time you broke my heart
<instrumental break>
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
<end of eddy arnold version>
Transcriber's note: another contributor says "additional lyrics to 'bouquet of roses' -
as per readers digest 'treasury of best loved songs':
[2nd time through starts:]
'you made our lover's lane a road of sorrow
till at last we had to say goodbye
you're leaving me to face each new tomorrow
with a broken heart you taught to cry'
these are included herewith for informational purposese only since eddy arnold didn't
sing them on the particular recording i listened to.
