You Can’t Go Where the Roses Go

[Verse 1]

Today, I saw the roses die

The ones that we picked out

And I turned around to cry

I could not help myself

[Chorus]

I know where the roses go

Who do what they should do

And baby, you won't go where the roses go

If you can't be true

[Verse 2]

Today, I saw the roses die

The ones that we picked out

As I stood there I could see

I could not help them now

[Chorus]

I know where the roses go

Who do what they should do

And baby, you won't go where the roses go

If you can't be true

[Bridge]

Don't you want to walk where the flowers play

Beneath the sky of gold

Where the little white doves fly by the hour

Singing our love will never grow cold?

[Verse 3]

Oh, today I saw the roses die

The ones that we picked out

And I hoped that you could tell

What it was all about

[Chorus]

I know where the roses go

Who do what they should do

And baby, you won't go where the roses go

If you can't be true

[Outro]

You won't go there

If you can't be true

You can't go there

If you can't be true

You won't go there

If you can't be true
