Chris de Burgh - Rose of England
Hear my voice and listen well and a story I will tell
How duty brought a broken heart and why a love so strong
Must fall apart;
She was lovely she was fine daughter of a royal line
He no equal but for them it mattered little for they were in love;
Rose of England sweet and fair shining with the sun
Rose of England have a care for where the thorn is
There the blood will run;
Oh my heart oh my heart;
Through the summer days and nights stolen kisses and delights
Would thrill their hearts and fill their dreams with all emotions
That true love can bring;
But black of mourning came one day when her sister passed away
And many said on bended knee she has gone and you must be our Queen;
Rose of England sweet and fair shining with the sun
Rose of England have a care for where the thorn is
There the blood will run;
Oh my heart oh my heart;
To the abbey she did ride with her lover by her side
When they heard the church bells ring she was Queen
And one day he＇d be King;
But men of malice men of hate protesting to her chambers came
“A foreign prince will have your hand for he＇ll bring peace
And riches to our land;”
She said “Do you tell me that I cannot wed the one I love
Do you tell me that I am not mistress of my heart ”
And so with heavy weight of life she kissed her lover one last time
“This land I wed and no man comes for if I cannot have you I＇ll have none;”
Rose of England sweet and fair shining with the sun
Rose of England have a care for where the thorn is
There the blood will run;
Oh my heart oh my heart
