The orchid is a flower

that blooms so tenderly

to thrill the fairest lady

of the land
toth chefahestlady

oftheland
If placed beside
a blushing rose

the rose

could not compare
as l to understand

I overlooked an orchid

while searching for a rose
I overlooked an orchid

while searching for a rose
the rose that l was

searching for
The orchid that I find

my dear was you
The rose has lost it's color
but the orchid stays the same
and I'm alone to face

these lonely years
but the orchid stays the same

and I'm alone to face

these lonely years
and I'm alone to face

these lonely years
I didn't see the orchid

l was looking for a rose

and now I pay the price

with bitter tears
l was looking for a rose

and now I pay the price

with bitter tears
and now I pay the price

with bitter tears
I overlooked an orchid

while searching for a rose

The orchid that

I overlooked was you
while searching for a rose

The orchid that

I overlooked was you
The rose that l was

searching for

has proved to be untrue
The orchid that I find

my dear was you
