the rose you wore for me (danny carnahan) - debra cowan lyrics

Loading...

when i open my eyes
i can see you still
with the sunlight so g-y
glinting on the quay
all b-ttons and bows
and the bloom of the rose
you wore for me
oh i swore i’d return
as a prince someday
with a ship full of gold
for the world to see
yes i promised you then
though i couldn’t say when
that day would be

chorus:
and long are the days
since we lay in the fields so green
and long are the nights
to consider what might have been
and the song of the geese in the wind
will call your name
oh the mountains just laugh
when i turn for home
not a mountain so high
nor a man so small
is it hours to the sh0r-
or ten thousand miles more
beyond recall
‘twas a fool to believe
all the things they said
twice a fool just to kiss you
and sail away
but they lied when they told
of those rivers of gold in america
if a word or a wish could
transport me now
i would fly to your arms
like a moth to flame
but i’m chained and i’m bound
to this cold foreign ground
with none to blame
does my love warm your heart
through the cold, cold night?
does it twine ‘round your heart
as the roses grown
or does love burn away
leaving ashes so grey
and cold as stone?
