Rose of England
Hear my voice and listen well And a story I will tell How duty brought a broken heart And why a love so strong must fall apart
She was lovely, she was fine Daughter of a royal line He, no equal, but for them it mattered little For they were in love
Rose of England, sweet and fair Shining with the sun Rose of England, have a care For where the thorn is there the blood will run
Oh my heart, oh my heart
Through the summer days and nights Stolen kisses and delights Would thrill their hearts and fill their dreams with all emotions That true love can bring
But black of mourning came one day When her sister passed away And many said on bended knee She has gone, and you must be our Queen
Rose of England, sweet and fair Shining with the sun Rose of England, have a care For where the thorn is there the blood will run Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Oh my heart, oh my heart
To the abbey she did ride With her lover by her side When they heard the church bells ring She was Queen and one day, he'd be King
But men of malice, men of hate Protesting to her chambers came ‽A foreign prince will have your hand For he'll bring peace and riches to our landâ€
She said, ‽Do you tell me That I cannot wed the one I love? Do you tell me that I am not Mistress of my heart?â€
And so with heavy weight of life She kissed her lover one last time ‽This land I wed, and no man comes For if I cannot have you, I'll have noneâ€
Rose of England, sweet and fair Shining with the sun Rose of England, have a care For where the thorn is there the blood will run
Oh my heart, oh my heart
