The summer is here at last
|
The sky is overcast
|
And no one brings a rose for Emily
|
|
She watches her flowers grow
|
While lovers come and go
|
To give each other roses from her tree
|
But not a rose for Emily...
|
|
Emily, can't you see (how the sun is shining again)
|
There's nothing you can do?
|
There's loving everywhere
|
But none for you...
|
|
Her roses are fading now
|
She keeps her pride somehow
|
That's all she has protecting her from pain
|
|
And as the years go by
|
She will grow old and die
|
The roses in her garden fade away
|
Not one left for her grave
|
Not a rose for Emily...
|
