Red Red Rose Lyrics by Emmylou Harris

Red Red Rose Lyrics

    (david mallett)

    You may wonder if you know me
    You may wonder if i care
    Or if i'll leave you sad and lonely
    Or if i'll always be right there
    Well there's no need for doubt now darlin'
    'cause i have come to know
    This love of ours is no common flower
    You know this love is like a red, red rose

    And you may wonder about this dreamer
    If she's all you thought she'd be
    And, oh, if anything but someday
    Ever comes from lovin' me
    But hold me close and tell me darlin'
    That you have come to know
    This love i bring you is no common thing
    You know this love is like a red, red rose

    When you're all caught up in sweet surrender
    Simple truth is sometimes hard to see
    Here between the tough times and the tender
    It all comes down to you and me

    And you may see my heart of darkness
    I may stumble now and again
    But underneath this heart of darkness
    There's a heart that's lovin' you right till the end
    So hold me close, come hold me darlin'
    'cause i want you to know
    This love of ours is no common flower
    You know this love is like a red, red rose

    This love of ours is no common flower
    You know this love is like a red, red rose
