Texty: Phil Vassar. Phil Vassar. Rose Bouquet.

We were somethin', you and me
Yeah, we had 'em rollin' in the aisles
We got it right once, didn't we
We had our shot and missed it by a mile

Forget the bitter end, can you remember when
We sang, we laughed, they all watched us dance
They circled around us and toasted to forever
We played to win, we never gave in
And we threw it all away, like your rose bouquet

Passion flows like a long white gown
But it ain't easy to keep your love alive
We hoped each other would come around
We'll use the lessons for better luck next time

But how sweet it was back then, do you remember when
We sang, we laughed, they all watched us dance
They circled around us and toasted to forever
We played to win, we never gave in
And we threw it all away, like your rose bouquet

We sang, we laughed, they all watched us dance
They circled around us and toasted to forever
We played to win and we never gave in
And we threw, yeah, we threw it all away
Like your rose bouquet
