Red rose out of the east
Tell the love I love least. Who knows?
Red rose out of the west
Tell the love I love best Love is a rose
Only a rose I give you.
Only a song dying away,
Only a smile to keep in memory
Until we meet another day.
Only a rose to whisper,
Blushing as roses do,
I'll bring along a smile or a song for anyone
Only a rose for you.
Only a rose you give me.
Only a song dying away,
Only a smile to keep in memory
Until we meet another day.
Only a rose to whisper, (Only a rose to whisper,)
Blushing as roses do, (Blushing as roses do,)
I'll bring along a smile or a song for anyone
Only a rose for you.
