TwinklingStar Laydee's blog: "just notes of interest"

Here's a rose from my garden 
Where the bloom of romance grows 
But I'll keep on a part near my aching heart 
Just a petal from a faded rose. 

Love'd be sweet in the morning 
When the breeze of summer blows 
But will fade and die when the wind is nigh 
Like a petal from a faded rose. 

--- Instrumental --- 

Now our love is a memory 
Where it's gone nobody knows 
But I'll hold so dear as a souvenir 
Just a petal from a faded rose. 

(I will live with the roses 
Where the sea of mem'ry flows) 
And each time I dream 
Then a tear will gleam 
On this petal from a faded rose...
