Lyrics
ROSES, CANDY, AND A VALENTINE CARD
HE FELL IN LOVE
SHE WAS EIGHTEEN
HE SAID SHE WAS HIS AMERICAN QUEEN
MONEY WAS SCARCE AND TIMES WERE HARD
HE BROUGHT HER ROSES, CANDY,AND A VALENTINE CARD
THEY WERE MARRIED ONE NIGHT IN JUNE
WENT DOWN TOWN ON THEIR HONEYMOON
MONEY WAS SCARCE AND TIMES WERE HARD
HE BROUGHT HER ROSES,CANDY,AND A VALENTINE CARD
(CHORUS)
INSIDE HE WROTE I LOVE YOU
ROSES ARE RED AND VIOLETS ARE BLUE
I'LL LOVE YOU TILL THE DAY THAT I DIE
I'LL BE YOURS TILL THE END OF TIME
THEY WERE MARRIED SOME SIXTY YEARS
HE VISITS HER GRAVE EYES FULL OF TEARS
MONEY IS SCARCE AND TIMES STILL HARD
HE'LL BRING HER ROSES, CANDY,AND A VALENTINE CARD.
(Go TO CHORUS)
NOW ONE YEAR LATER AS THEY LAY HIM TO REST
THEIR HANDS JOIN IN HEAVEN WHERE THEY ARE BLESSED
MONEY'S NOT NEEDED, TIME ARE NOT HARD
HE BROUGHT HER ROSES CANDY AND A VALENTINE CARD
INSIDE HE WRITES I LOVE YOU,____ROSES ARE RED YOUR EYES SO BLUE
NOW BACK TOGETHER LIKE I KNEW WE WOULD BE
YOU AND I TOGETHER ___FOR ETERNITY
HE WAS IN LOVE, SHE WAS EIGHTEEN_____HE SAID SHE WAS HIS AMERICAN QUEEN
