i wore your roses yesterday - john knowles paine lyrics

Loading...

i wore your roses yesterday:
about this light robe’s folds of white
wherein their gathered sweetness lay
still clings their perfume, perfume of delight
and all in vain the warm wind sweeps
those airy folds like vapor fine
among them still the odor sleeps
and haunts me with a dream divine, a dream divine

so be my heart your mem’ry clings
so sweet, as rich, so delicate;
eternal summertime it brings
defying all the storms of fate;
a power to turn the darkness bright
till life with matchless beauty glows;
each moment touched with tender light
and ev’ry thought of you a rose!
