Cynthia Schloss - Paper Roses lyrics

I realize the way your eyes deceived me With tender looks that I mistook for love So take away the flowers that you gave me And send the kind that you remind me of Chorus: Paper roses, paper roses Oh, how real those roses seemed to be But they're only imitation Like your imitation love for me I thought that you would be a perfect lover You seemed so full of sweetness at the start But like a big red rose that's made of paper There isn't any sweetness in your heart Repeat Chorus
