Le parfum sucre de vos roses s'evapore Et moi je compose Vous ne m'aurez jamais donne Que le baiser du condamne These flowers in your sweet hands Just how I feel to you If you could only touch me now Just a ghostly paper sigh Until you kiss me back to life I'm soon to breathe the roses bloom A thousand kisses say goodbye And then they say you'll never die A lonely fanfare blew And then they sing to you Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye! All your flowers fill my room And sing to me their happy tune Like nature's flowers destined to die A thousand hungry flowers Loving you for hours and hours Soon smothers me so tenderly A thousand kisses say goodbye And then they say you'll never die A lonely fanfare blew And then they sing to you My lips are open wide Stretched so far apart searching for the last kiss With my hands pressed tight to my head Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye! A thousand hungry flowers Loving you for hours and hours Soon smothers me so tenderly Bye! Bye! Bye! Bye! A thousand kisses say goodbye And then they say you'll never die A lonely fanfare blew And then they sing to you
