The Briar And The Rose |
I fell asleep |
Down by the stream |
There I had |
the strangest dream: |
Down by Brennen’s Glen there grows |
A Briar and a Rose |
A tree in the forest |
I don’t know where |
I built a nest out of your hair |
Climbing up Into the Air: |
A Briar and |
A Rose |
I don’t know how long |
it has been, |
But I was born |
in Brennen’s Glen. |
Near the end of Spring there grows |
A Briar and a Rose. |
I picked the Rose |
One early morn', but |
Priced my finger on a thorn. |
They’d grown so close |
Winding round, |
The Briar and the rose |
I tried to tear them |
both apart |
I felt a bullet |
in my Heart |
All dressed up in Spring’s new clothes: |
The Briar and |
The Rose. |
When I’m buried |
in my grave |
Tell me so I will know |
Your tears will fall |
To make love grow |
The Briar and the Rose. |
When I’m buried |
in my grave |
Tell me so I will know |
Your tears will fall |
To make them grow |
The Briar and the Rose |
Your tears will fall |
To make them grow |
The Briar and |
The Rose |
