Lyrics:

Old father time has seen a million, million hearts
Break with pain down the highway of years
I never dreamed that the love I thought was true
Would deceive and just leave me these tears
The little seeds of happiness I grew with tender care
Have withered now that fate has played its part
And my bud of love has closed, I have lost the only rose
That was blooming in the garden of my heart

Mr. Moon, I wonder as you gaze from up above
On my broken heart that love has cast away
If there's just one trace of sadness on my darling's face tonight
Will she bloom within my heart again some day
Will the weeds and briers vanish where the tears of sorrow fell
And let the seeds of romance play its part
Or must I go on living with just memories of a rose
That once blossomed in the garden of my heart
