Address Unknown - Johnny & Dorsey Burnette

Address Unknown

Johnny & Dorsey Burnette

(Carmen Lombardo, UNISSUED, 1960)

Well, I sent a big bouquet of roses
I didn't hear you say that you'd be gone
Now I got a big bouquet of roses
And a note that reads "address unknown"

So I took the big bouquet of roses
And a picture of the girl that I once knew
And put them together where I watched them
Die just like the love I gave to you

One by one I wathced the petals fall
Your picture didn't seem to mind at all
Then the last petal fell, and there went the roses
But my love for you still lingers on
All I got left is your picture
And a note that reads "address unknown"

One by one I wathced the petals fall
Your picture didn't seem to mind at all
Then the last petal fell, and there went the roses
But my love for you still lingers on
All I got left is your picture
And a note that reads "address unknown"
And a note that reads "address unknown"
