Here's a rose from my garden Where the bloom of romance grows But I'll keep on a part near my aching heart Just a petal from a faded rose Love'd be sweet in the morning When the breeze of summer blows But will fade and die when the wind is nigh Like a petal from a faded rose [ vibes ] Now our love is a memory Where it's gone nobody knows But I'll hold so dear as a souvenir Just a petal from a faded rose (I will live with the roses Where the sea of mem'ry flows) And each time I dream then a tear will gleam On this petal from a faded rose
