Текст песни Roses From The Wrong Man (Christine Lavin) с переводом

She opened the door, surprised to see a deliveryman

Holding a beautiful vase of roses in his hands

«For me?» she said; he nodded his head

She took the flowers in and read the note

Roses from the wrong man;

Poetry written in the wrong hand

She waits for one; she hears from another

Who tells her how much he loves her

With roses from the wrong man

She places the vase in the middle of the living room

The air is scented with the delicate sweet perfume

She takes a deep breath, closes her eyes

Shakes her head slowly and sighs

Roses from the wrong man;

Poetry written in the wrong hand

She waits for one; she hears from another

Who tells her how much he loves her

With roses from the wrong man

How long can she hold out for someone who might never come around?

And how many times will this other man try when she keeps turning him down?

She’s not getting any younger, but she don’t want to settle for less

Oh, how can such a pretty bunch of flowers trigger such deep unhappiness?

Ever since she was 11 or 12 it was her dream

To receive the kind of flowers carried by the homecoming queen

And sometimes dreams can come true

In ways you don’t expect them to

Sometimes dreams can come true

In ways you don’t want them to

Roses from the wrong man
