the red rose wispers of passion,
and the white rose breaths of love,
the red rose is a falcon,
and the white rose is a dove,
but i send you a cream-white rosebud,
with a flush on its petal tips;
for the love that is purest and sweetest
has a kiss of desire on the lips
and the white rose breaths of love,
the red rose is a falcon,
and the white rose is a dove,
but i send you a cream-white rosebud,
with a flush on its petal tips;
for the love that is purest and sweetest
has a kiss of desire on the lips
