The Fable Of The Rose - 78rpm Version

Starry night, this is the fable of the rose
The rose he gave his love
So young and tender, so in bloom
Filled with a faint perfume
Is lying crushed and faded in her room

Starry night, this is the fable of the rose
The rose he gave his love
Beyond all dreams of her caress
He may as well confess

She only loved him slightly, maybe less
Yet her smile so strangely haunts him
All the thrill of it taunts him
And so it goes, the fable of the rose
