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
