Emmylou Harris - Root Like a Rose Lyrics

Lyrics Root Like a Rose - Emmylou Harris



There′s a green, green place
Where you lift your face
To the sound of the waves and the wind
Down by the shore
There my soul does endure
Where the mother sea ends and begins
Take me home
To the sand and the foam
Where my dreams still walk in the mist
I would fall to the earth and root like a rose
In the salt land that gave me my verse
Though I wander afar
The same sea, the same stars
Still shine through the tears in my eyes
They take me home to a land
That my soul understands
Where the heart, the rose never dies
Take me home
To the sand and the foam
Where my dreams still walk in the mist
I would fall to the earth and root like a rose
In the salt land that gave me my verse
