Lyrics Red, Red Rose - The Deep Dark Woods

Red, Red Rose

It’s been two months and I’m dying inside
I wish I’d a had you as my bride
The pain is in bloom and things are bleak
I didn’t even think of you once last week
I’m sitting here wondering what to do
Thinking about the night I bid my darling adieu
I thought my love had faded and gone
It was me, I was wrong all along
The rain it falls and the wind does blow
I gave my love a red, red rose
I wasn’t faithful I treated her poor
For this pain in my heart there ain’t no cure
I’m suffering hard, no the pain won’t end
It’s only you who I could depend
Forgive me love, let’s start anew
I never thought I would prove untrue
So listen to me all you ale house men
Don’t let the tavern take you in
Don’t let the cravings change your ways
Or you will be single all the rest of your days
The rain it falls and the wind does blow
I gave my love a red, red rose
I wasn’t faithful I treated her poor
For this pain in my heart there ain’t no cure
I’m suffering hard, no the pain won’t end
It’s only you who I could depend
Forgive me love, let’s start anew
I never thought I would prove untrue
So listen to me all you ale house men
Don’t let the tavern take you in
Don’t let the cravings change your ways
Or you will be single all the rest of your days
The rain it falls and the wind does blow
I gave my love a red, red rose
I wasn’t faithful I treated her poor
For this pain in my heart there ain’t no cure
