Im far away from home out on the dashing foam,
Just how far I have travelled Ill never know,
Sometimes I feel so blue and I long for home and you,
But I must stay and fight the foe.
CHORUS
So Im sending you red roses to tell you my love is true,
And I send them so you will know dear that Im always thinking of you.
Enclosed you will find my heart dear so treat it with tender care
And evry time you look inside dear youll find my love is there.
May each petal be a memory of the happiness we knew,
Each thorn may tell a story of the heartache that Ive been thro,
So Im sending you red roses although were oceans apart,
And remember when they fade dear that youll always have my heart.
