Bobby Darin - 18 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 nothin' 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 'cause eighteen yellow roses Will wilt and die one day ... But... a father's love will never fade away Will never fade away...
