Roses Are Red Lyrics - 1962

[ Buy Roses Are Red ]

(Hank Cochran/Harlan Howard)

(You walk by and I fall to pieces)

I fall to pieces (ah-ah-ah...)
Each time I see you again
I fall to pieces (ah-ah-ah...)
How can I be just your friend? (just your friend)

You want me to act
Like we've never kissed (never kissed)
You want me to forget,
Pretend we've never met
And I've tried and I've tried
But I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces

(I fall to pieces, ah-ah-ah...)
Each time someone speaks your name
(I fall to pieces, ah-ah-ah...)
Time only adds to the flame (to the flame)

You tell me to find
Someone else to love, (else to love)
Someone who'll love me too
The way you used to do
But each time I go out
With someone new,
You walk by and I fall to pieces
You walk by and I fall to pieces
