Yellow Rose Lyrics

Hopelessly watching and waiting

To see if my lover has turned to walk away

Opening slowly I sit by the water, I'm broken

There's nothing left to say

Red, red roses, all but one yellow bud

The gentle thud of unrequited love

Am I protected by this thorn in my heart?

What must I have been thinking of?

The rose of recognition

Or the yellow rose of unrequited love

Here in the aftermath, hopes crashed asunder

I wonder, can I camouflage my sadness?

Begging forgiveness, I don't understand love

How could I not notice my madness?

Red, red roses, all but one yellow bud

The yellow rose of unrequited loveAlannah Myles - Yellow Rose - http://motolyrics.com/alannah-myles/yellow-rose-lyrics.html

Am I protected by this thorn in my heart?

What must I have been thinking of?

The rose of recognition

Or the yellow rose of unrequited love

Holding my head up to fight off their glances

I shifted and picked up my coat and my glasses

Boldly I stood up to everyone's weakness

I've lifted my spirits but still I am sleepless

Red, red roses, all but one yellow bud

The yellow rose of unrequited love

Am I protected by this thorn in my heart?

What must I have been thinking of?

The rose of recognition

Or the yellow rose of unrequited love

What must I have been thinking of?
