Lyrics Faded Orchid - Connie Francis

An old faded orchid, (an old faded orchid)
Crushed between the pages of an old shattered book
An old faded orchid (an old faded orchid)
Brings me back the memory of the vow that we took

Like the leaves, my heart is crushed with wronging
Like the book, my soul is shattered and worn
Though you′re gone I feel the same old longing
I still love you, I still love you

An old faded orchid, (an old faded orchid)
Once a lovely emblem at a gay Summer dance
An old faded orchid, (an old faded orchid)
Then it was an offer just to seal our romance

Like the leaves, my heart is crushed with wronging
Like the book, my soul is shattered and worn
Though you're gone I feel the same old longing
Still I love you, still, I love you
(An old faded orchid)
