《I Overlooked An Orchid While Searching For A Rose》歌词

[00:00:00] I Overlooked An Orchid While Searching For A Rose - Carl Smith (卡尔·史密斯)

[00:00:09] The orchid is a flower that blooms so tenderly

[00:00:16] To thrill the fairest lady of the land

[00:00:24] If placed beside a blushing rose

[00:00:29] The rose could not compare

[00:00:32] But how was such as I to understand

[00:00:40] I overlooked an orchid while searching for a rose

[00:00:49] The orchid that I overlooked was you

[00:00:56] The rose that I was searching for

[00:01:01] Has proved to be untrue

[00:01:04] The orchid now I find my dear was you

[00:01:45] The rose has lost its color

[00:01:49] But the orchid is the same

[00:01:53] And I'm alone to face these lonely years

[00:02:01] I didn't see the orchid

[00:02:05] I was looking for a rose

[00:02:09] And now I pay the price with bitter tears

[00:02:17] 'Cause I overlooked an orchid while searching for a rose

[00:02:26] The orchid that I overlooked was you

[00:02:34] The rose that I was searching for

[00:02:38] Has proved to be untrue

[00:02:42] The orchid now I find my dear was you
