Lyrics:
|
A orchid is a flower that blooms so tenderly
It thrills the fairest lady of the land If placed beside a blushing rose the rose could not compare But how was such as I, to understand. I overlooked an orchid while searching for a rose The orchid that I overlooked was you. The rose that I was searching for has proved to be untrue The orchid that I find my dear was you. The rose has lost its color, but the orchid stays the same And I'm alone to face these lonely years I didn't see the orchid, I was searching for a rose And now I pay the price with bitter tears. I overlooked an orchid while searching for a rose The orchid that I overlooked was you The rose that I was searching for has proved to be untrue The orchid that I find my dear was you. The orchid that I find my dear was you |
