Pretty Yellow Roses

Pretty yellow roses,
don't fade like she did yesterday...
stay alive and cry with me today:
to let all memories disappear  
into a rainfall of teardrops
on this sad day of December;
to have found her
was really joyful,
but to lose her
can be really painful!

Every Saturday night
we loved to dine out
by a wide window...
as the snow-covered trees
were set aglow;
we smiled and gently touched with ease
by dim candlelight: like first lovers...
as you pretty yellow roses
filled that room with fragrance...
to delight us more!

Pretty yellow roses,
please keep me company
and gladly remind me
of all those wonderful nights
so full of laughter and smiles;
how can I let go without a goodbye?
Pretty yellow roses,
don't fade away and die...
like this heart that never asked why;
pretty yellow roses,
wait till I close these sad eyes
and dream of Paradise!
