Well it's a sweet dream
|
That keeps me close to you dear
|
And it's a sad thing
|
That we're apart I'm blue dear
|
And there are times now
|
I thank the heavens up above
|
|
When I'm with the one that I love
|
Now there are diamonds
|
That some may long to see
|
And they may shine
|
But not bright enough for me
|
I wouldn't take no
|
|
The whole world dipped in gold
|
For a night with my Tennessee Rose
|
Take this love that I am giving
|
For it's truly the lasting kind
|
The gift I hold is believing
|
That you will always be mine
|

|
And there are times now
|
That heaven only knows
|
How I love my Tennessee Rose
|
Only my Tennessee Rose
