Red Rose

Red Rose, it's the name they call me in my mother country
It's the name they call me in my mother country
Red Rose, so it goes. From thorns to thorns I grow

For shame! They drove me to leave there to come to here, that's not fair
They drove me to leave there to come to here, that's not fair
For shame! For shame! In vain is all! In vain!

Nought have I learned save the songs of the birds
In the air of the dreams I've been swimming in
I know that you know that I know
So why say I know? Do you know I know?

This game I have come to play in feels like a delaying
I have come to play in what feels like a delaying
The drain! The drain! I'm poured down like the rain

Nought have I learned save the songs of the birds
In the air of the dreams I've been swimming in
I know that they know that I know
So why say I know? Do you know I know?
So why say I know? I know, I know I know!

A Red Rose, it's the name they called me in my mother country
It's the name they called me in my mother country
Red Rose, so it goes. From thorns to thorns I grow
