Bobby Darin - Eighteen Yellow Roses lyrics

Eighteen yellow roses came today Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet When the boy came to the door I didn't know what to say But eighteen yellow roses came today I opened up the card To see what it said I couldn't believe my eyes When I had read Though you belong to another I love you anyway Yes eighteen yellow roses came today I never doubted your love for a minute I always thought that you would be true But now this box and the flowers in it I guess there's nothing left for me to do But ask to meet the boy That's done this thing And find out if he's got plans To buy you a ring Cuz eighteen yellow roses Will wilt and die one day But a fathers love, will never fade away Will never fade away
