The Wild Rose - Jim Reeves

A rose should be

Where the sun shines through

Not where the wine is red

And the smoke is blue

A rose should be

Blooming in the light

Not in a randezvous

Blooming in the night

And you are a rose

May be a wild rose

But I’ll be proud to take you home

For all to see

To stand with me

Where the candles glow

With orange blossoms

All around the wild, wild rose

--- Instrumental ---

And you are a rose

May be a wild rose

But I’ll be proud to take you home

For all to see

To stand with me

Where the candles glow

With orange blossoms

All around the wild, wild rose…
