Take this rose my lover
Remember it’s part of me
Take this rose my lover
When you go to sea
You’ll be gone a long time
But I’ll remember thee
I have read the signs
And you’ll come back to me
I’ll be on the widows walk
For many days at a time
And when you tie up to the dock
I’ll be running to you
Take this rose my lover
Remember it’s part of me
Take this rose my lover
Darling come home to me
