Intro: I heard his time was short so I Went to see my old friend When I walked through the door he said Sure good to see you again Sit down here by me, Doc says my future ain't bright But even if I don't beat it there's a Part of my past that won't die He points to a picture and smiles From his easy chair As he relives the moments, says girl That was heaven right there You can see his heart's broken As a lonesome tear drops to the floor And along with the silence that fell Came a knock at the door A bouquet wrapped up in ribbons and bows Too little too late I suppose But he clings to the last ray of hope And a dozen white roses They were meant for eachother That was clear right from the start What a shame too much pride and a jealous heart Kept them apart A card and some flowers Ain't quite enough to make amends For fifty years living a life Of what should have been A bouquet wrapped up in ribbons and bows Too little too late I suppose But he clings to the last ray of hope And a dozen white roses Outro:
