Everyday I sent another present,
Just to let her know how very much I care
Wrote a little love note with each present,
But it didn?t seem to get me anywhere

My poor worried heart was almost certain,
That this love affair would never be
Then I sent a dozen yellow roses,
Then from that moment she belonged to me

Roses, roses, roses I thank all the roses
That bloom in the spring
Love is a wonderful thing,
The rest of my life I will bring her
Roses and roses and roses of love

Roses, roses, roses I thank you for saying
What I couldn?t say
Oh!, what a wonderful way,
To tell her, "I Love You" each day,
With roses and roses and roses of love
And roses and roses and roses of love,
And roses and roses and roses
