Christmas roses to you I'm sending,
May they bring you Christmas joy though we're apart;
Christmas roses will say I love you,
As their tender message echoes from my heart.

While I can't be with you on this Christmas Day,
Remember that I'll always love you though I'm far away;
Christmas roses to you I'm sending,
May they bring you Christmas joy though we're apart.

While I can't be with you on this Christmas Day,
Remember that I'll always love you though I'm far away;
Christmas roses to you I'm sending,
May they bring you Christmas joy though we're apart.
May they bring you Christmas joy though we're apart.
