Little Jimmy Dickens – Letras de Petal From A Faded Rose

(Merle Travis - Leon Rusk)

Here's a rose from the garden
Where the bloom of romance grows
But I'll keep one part near my aching heart
Just a petal from a faded rose.

Love is sweet in the morning
When the breeze of summer blows
But will fade and die when the winter's nigh
A petal from a faded rose.

--- Instrumental ---

Now our love is a mem'ry
Where it's gone nobody knows
But I'll hold so dear as a souvenir
Just a petal from a faded rose.

I will live with the roses
Where the stream of mem'ry flows
And each time I dream a tear will gleam
On the petal from a faded rose...
