You brought me yellow roses I wanted red I want your warmth and closeness I'm not your friend
Oh, and some other love She is the fortunate one You'll give her all that I want And I'll get nothing, nothing
But dreams in the night Flowers that wither and die Chasing impossible skies Into nothing, nothing
You brought me yellow roses I wanted red I want your warmth and closeness I'm not your friend Baby, all I ever wanted Was a love that wasn't there You brought me yellow roses And I wanted red
Oh, in some other faith I've been here praying for days But you still ain't showing your face I see nothing, nothing
Ooh, I won't wait it, I won't wait it, I won't wait it out for you Ooh, do you wonder, do you wonder, do you wonder, could it be true?
You brought me yellow roses I wanted red I want your warmth and closeness Baby, I'm not your friend All I ever wanted was a love that wasn't there You brought me yellow roses but I wanted red
