BIG BLUE ROSES

Written by Tom T. and Dixie Hall

CHORUS:
Big blue roses
round my door
seems to me they were always red before
big blue roses
don't look real
are they blue or is it just
the way I feel

We dreamed a wedding in the spring
and love forever more
A picket fence, a cottage
and some roses round the door
When you decided you'd move on
and all our plans fell through
It got so cold in mid July
the roses turned to blue

(CHORUS)

We planted roses in the spring
with tender loving care
We treated them like babies
every minute we could spare
We watched them grow 
we watched them bloom
and reach up towards the sky
We took care of the roses
but we let a good love die

(CHORUS)
