The valley green was so serene
|
In the middle ran a stream so blue...
|
A maiden fair, in despair, once had met her true love there and she told him...
|
She would say...
|
"Promise me, when you see, a white rose you'll think of me
|
I love you so,
|
Never let go,
|
I will be your ghost of a rose..."
|
|
Her eyes believed in mysteries
|
She would lay amongst the leaves of amber
|
Her spirit wild, heart of a child, yet gentle still and quiet and mild and he loved her...
|
When she would say...
|
"Promise me, when you see, a white rose you'll think of me
|
I love you so,
|
Never let go,
|
I will be your ghost of a rose..."
|
|
When all was done, she turned to run
|
Dancing to the setting sun as he watched her
|
And ever more he thought he saw
|
A glimpse of her upon the moors forever
|
He'd hear her say...
|
"Promise me , when you see, a white rose you'll think of me
|
I love you so,
|
Never let go,
|
I will be your ghost of a rose..."
