The Rose Tattoo - Perry Como

He wore the rose tattoo,

To prove his love was true.

..

But hearts can lie, so why deny,

That roses fade and love can die.

..

She’ll wait her whole life through,

Like fools an’dreamer’s do.

..

She’ll go on caring for one who’s wearing,

The rose.

.. the rose tattoo.

..

<instrumental verse>

She’ll wait her whole life through,

Like fools an’dreamer’s do.

..

She’ll go on caring for one who’s wearing,

The rose.

.. the rose tattoo.
