Blue Rose Of The Rio lyrics

Blue rose of the Rio I can see her now
As she looked that day when I rode away through a golden dawn
It was there by the Rio that we made our vows
Then we kissed goodbye what a fool was I fore I traveled on.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hank_snow/blue_rose_of_the_rio.html ]
I should have known as we kissed such heaven as this could only be
Paradise's lost if it was tossed away so free
Must I wish for manana that will never come true
Blue rose of the Rio my answer is you.

(I should have known as we kissed such heaven as this could only be
Paradise's lost if it was tossed away so free)
Must I wish for manana that will never come true
Blue rose of the Rio, my answer is you...)
