Roses of Red Lyrics

Roses of red
Fall in my hand
He smiled and turned away
Roses of red
Grow in my heart
They bloom when he passes me by

'Cause he, he makes me happy
And he, he makes my fly
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
I bloom when he passes me by

If you want paradise
Then look at my eyes
I'm as clear as a sky when it's blue
If you want paradise
Then look at me twice
'Cause I'm not a normal red rose

And he, he makes me crazy
And he, he makes my fly
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
I bloom when he passes me by
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
I bloom when he passes me by

I know that he doesn't know me
He's just too different, no, no
And I know he knows and he knows I know
We're just too different, no, no

Roses of red
Fall in my hand
He smiled and turned away
Roses of red
Fall in my heart
They bloom when he passes me by

Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
I bloom when he passes me by
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
Oh-uh-oh (smiled and turned away)
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (smiled and turned away)
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (smiled and turned away)
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (smiled and turned away)
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (smiled and turned away)
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (smiled and turned away)
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (smiled and turned away)

Roses of red
Fall in my hand
He smiled and turned away
Roses of red
Grow in my heart
They bloom when he passes me by

'Cause he, he makes me happy
And he, he makes my fly
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
I bloom when he passes me by

If you want paradise
Then look at my eyes
I'm as clear as a sky when it's blue
If you want paradise

'Cause I'm not a normal red rose

And he, he makes me crazy
And he, he makes my fly
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
I bloom when he passes me by
Oh-uh-oh
Oh-uh-oh (ah)
I bloom when he passes me by

I know that he doesn't know me
He's just too different, no, no
And I know he knows and he knows I know
We're just too different, no, no

Roses of red
Fall in my hand
He smiled and turned away
Roses of red
Fall in my heart
They bloom when he passes me by

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
