Yellow Rose letra

Hopelessly watching and waiting
To see if my lover
Has turned to walk away
Opening slowly I sit by the water, I'm broken
There's nothing left to say
Red, red roses, all but one yellow bud
The gentle thud of unrequited love

Am I protected by this thorn in my heart
What must I have been thinking of
The rose of recognition
Or the yellow rose of unrequited love

Here in the aftermath
Hopes crashed asunder, I wonder
Can I camouflage my sadness
Begging forgiveness
I don't understand love
How could I not notice my madness
Red, red roses, all but one yellow bud
the yellow rose of unrequited love

Am I protected by this thorn in my heart
What must I have been thinking of
The rose of recognition
Or the yellow rose of unrequited love

Holding my head up to fight off their glances
I shifted and picked up
My coat and my glasses
Boldly I stood up to everyone's weakness
I've lifted my spirit but still
I am sleepless

Am I protected by this thorn in my heart
What must I have been thinking of
The rose of recognition
Or the yellow rose of unrequited love

What must I have been thinking of...
