That One Last Rose (Mix 2)

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

"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
