Rose Darling

Rose darling, come to me; Snke Mary's gone to bed.

All our steaming sounds of love cannot disturb her in her night

Or raise her sleeping head.

All I must ask of you is make my widest dreams come true;

No one sees and no one knows



Rose darling, come to me; Snake Mary dreams along.

I would guess she's in Detroit with lots of money in the bank

Although I could be wrong.

You must know it's right the spore is on the wind tonight;

You won't feel it till it grows.



Rose darling

[Rose darling]

My friend,

With only you and what I've found we'll wear the weary hours down.



[solo]



Rose darling, come to me; the clock is close at hand.

All my empty words of love can never screen the flash I feel

Or make you understand.

Oh, honey, can't you see, I know it's real, it's got to be;

Why not chase it where it grows?



[chorus]
