The roses each one met with the Sun
Sweetheart, when I met you
The sunshine had fled, the roses were dead
Sweetheart, when I lost you
The birds ceased their song, and right turned to wrong
Sweetheart when I lost you
A day turned to years, the world seemed in tears
Sweetheart when I lost you
I lost the sunshine and roses
I lost the heavens of blue
I lost the beautiful rainbow
I lost the morning dew
I lost the angel who gave me
Summer the whole winter through
I lost the gladness that turned into sadness
When I lost you
