《Galveston Rose》歌词

[00:00:00] Galveston Rose - Hank Snow

[00:00:05] Down in old southern Texas I wandered one day

[00:00:11] Where the tropical sea breezes blow

[00:00:17] I there fell in love with a flower so rare

[00:00:23] And they called her the Galveston rose

[00:00:29] Her heart was as true as her blue smiling eyes

[00:00:35] And as fair as the lily that grows

[00:00:41] And the finest of gold in no way could compare

[00:00:47] With the curls of my Galveston rose

[00:00:53] I grew jealous and falsely accused her one day

[00:00:59] Said her love I no longer should know

[00:01:05] I've been true please believe me her little heart cried

[00:01:11] But I left her my Galveston rose

[00:01:32] Little then did I think that sometimes I'm repay

[00:01:38] And would reap every sorrow and care

[00:01:44] But as years passed along I grew lonely each day

[00:01:50] For the one I had left waiting there

[00:01:56] So I wrote to my darling and said I was wrong

[00:02:02] I'll return dear if you'll only wed

[00:02:08] But soon came a letter my flower had died

[00:02:14] And these are the words that I read

[00:02:20] Your sweetheart is peacefully sleeping tonight

[00:02:26] In a grave where the white violets grow

[00:02:31] And enclosed there's a curl a last token of love

[00:02:37] And a note from your Galveston Rose

[00:02:44] I was innocent dear though you left me alone

[00:02:49] But remember I loved only you

[00:02:55] And the lock that's enclosed is a curl from your rose

[00:03:01] Who'll be waiting in heaven for you
