Lyrics
One by one we've lost the roses
of days of yore.
Where is the solid ground?
What are you hanging round here for?
One by one we've lost the roses.
There ain't no more.
Throw out that one last rose
and gently close the door
One by one we've lost the roses.
We didn't care.
We made a pretty pair.
We scattered roses everywhere.
One by one we've lost the roses.
Who counts the cost?
Throw out that one last rose,
it goes with those we've lost.
“There goes another one,”
we'd laugh and have our fun.
We didn't know our race was run.
We didn't know our time was done.
One by one we've lost the roses.
They go so fast.
Throw out that one last rose
and with it goes the past.
SOLO
“There goes another one,”
we'd laugh and have our fun.
We didn't know our race was run.
We didn't know our time was done.
One by one we've lost the roses.
There ain’t no more.
Throw out that one last rose
and gently close the door.
