Pardon me, I need to buy some roses
Would you wrap them in some paper and a bow?
For a long time I forgot how much she loves them
So now everyday I make sure I bring some home

I buy her roses, sweet red roses
Heaven knows that she deserves the very best
I buy her roses, pretty roses
'Cause loving her is as good as loving gets

Yes, ma'am and a card with love to someone special
So she will never have to wonder if I care
Than someday if she should come back home again
They'll be a house full of roses waiting there

I buy her roses, sweet red roses
Heaven knows that she deserves the very best
I buy her roses, pretty roses
'Cause loving her was as good as loving gets
Yes, loving her was as good as loving gets
