Roses Lyrics

She never had too much of money Friendly strangers were all she knew Nobody ever came to call but you I would not say she isn't happy though the eyes of a fool will make her blue Nobody's ever seen the tears It's true I guess nobody wanted to We'll have a celebration Ice cream and candy cakes She's very young to go so far away And then there'll be the papers in black and white to say we're through Nobody every loved me quite like you I guess nobody wanted to And there'll be roses in the springtime still I guess there will I wish her roses and song And she'll be older as years go by, and how they fly Will she be lonely without me along? She doesn't make friends easily She's only known a few The incidental stranger passing through On Sundays and holidays I'll take her far away We never tried to save the love we knew I guess nobody wanted to
