The Mem'ry Of A Rose Lyrics

The mem'ry of a rose

Is with me as I wander

The mem'ry of a rose

She gave me long ago

As evening comes and goes

I dream she waits out yonder

And so I take my way

Day by day

With the mem'ry of a rose



One stolen hour, a promise broken carelessly

A lovely bride once said "I will", but not to me...



The southwind when it blows

Brings only recollection

There's nothing else to bring

So I cling

To the mem'ry of a rose...
