rose in the heather
Singer: fiddler's green
i drove my boat on the river
my friend
i saw people
the farmers
their land
i met a girl and she passed me her hand
it seemed there'd never be an end
i came along with the people i found
i stayed around till i did hear a sound
i met a girl and i kissed her
my friend
it seemed there'd never be an end
a rose in the heather
a rose in my hand
a broken one this old land
a rose in the heather
a rose in the sand
a broken one in the end
i drove my boat
never thought that i would
i saw the crowds walk as fast as they could
i met a girl and i kissed her again
it seemed there'd never be an end
and you had to please no one but me
but now in the end
it seems like i'm losing a friend
a rose in the heather
a rose in my hand
a broken one this old land
a rose in the heather
a rose in my hand
a rose in the heather
a broken land
she faded away with the boy that she met
he plucked her heart and she pricked me instead
i met a girl and i loved her
my friend
it seemed there'd never be an end
a rose in the heather
a rose in my hand
a broken one this old land
a rose in the heather
a rose in the sand
a broken one in the end
and you had to please no one but me
but now in the end it seems i'm losing a friend
a rose in the heather
a rose in my hand
a broken one this old land
a rose in the heather
a rose in my hand
a broken one in the end
