《Only a Rose from My Mother’s Grave》歌词

[00:00:00] Only a Rose from My Mother's Grave - Hank Snow/Anita Carter

[00:00:06] It's only a rose from my mother's grave

[00:00:13] That I'd planted long long ago

[00:00:19] I pulled it from a stem where it used to wave

[00:00:26] With a windward soft and low

[00:00:32] It's only a flower white and so fair

[00:00:38] That she used to love so well

[00:00:45] Sweet were the perfume that filled the air

[00:00:51] Round her grave down in the dell

[00:00:57] It's only a rose a fragrant white rose

[00:01:04] That bloomed on my mother's grave

[00:01:11] Peace to her soul and blessed reposed

[00:01:17] With a bright rose above her way

[00:01:23] Only a rose from my mother's grave

[00:01:30] A flower she loved when here

[00:01:36] I shall press it away in a book and save

[00:01:43] Bloom will never end in years

[00:01:49] For mother was like this snow white rose

[00:01:55] Gentle at heart and lovely too

[00:02:02] Soon came the twilight with repose

[00:02:08] Angels made her bed and knew

[00:02:15] Only a rose from my mother's grave

[00:02:21] Kissed by dew from heaven up above

[00:02:28] Over her form it used to wave

[00:02:34] In its tenderness and love

[00:02:41] Only a rose but through the years

[00:02:46] We've been in some hollow shrine

[00:02:53] Often our eyes will fill with tears

[00:02:59] Gazing on this flower divine
