18 Yellow Roses

18 yellow roses came today
18 yellow roses in a pretty bouquet
When the boy came to the door, I didnt know what to say
But, 18 yellow roses came today
I opened up the card to see what it said
I couldnt believe my eyes when I had read
'Though you belong to another, I love you anyway'
Yes, 18 yellow roses came today
I never doubted your love for a minute
I always thought that you would be true
But now this box and the flowers in it
I guess theres nothin left for me to do
But ask to meet the boy thats done this thing
And find out if hes got plans to buy you a ring
Cause 18 yellow roses will wilt and die one day
But a fathers love will never fade away, will never fade away
