I Overlooked An Orchid

** PREDEHRA KYTARA ** 

The orchid is a flower, that blooms so tender'ly 
To thrill the fairest lady of the land 
If placed beside a blushin rose, the rose could not compare 
But how was such as I to understand 

I Overlooked An Orchid, while searching for a rose 
The orchid that I overlooked was you 
The rose that I was searching for has proved to be untrue 
The orchid now I find my dear, was you 

The rose has lost its color but the orchid is the same 
And I'malone to face these lonely years 
I didn't see the orchid, I was looking for a rose 
And now I pay the price with bitter tears 

I Overlooked An Orchid, while searching for a rose 
The orchid that I overlooked was you 
The rose that I was searching for has proved to be untrue 
The orchid now I find my dear, was you
