When the Roses Come Again

Neath the shadow down the meadow
Leaves lying on each side
By the river flowers shiver
Fading dying in their pride
Some one straying long delaying
Sad the parting down the lane
I must leave you someone's saying
Til the roses come again

Til the roses come again
When the roses come again
I must leave you someone's saying
Til the roses come again

As I wander I will ponder
On a happy by and by
On a summer over yonder
With joy to you and I
Do not borrow grief or sorrow
In the hours that remain
We shall know a glad tomorrow
When the roses come again

When the roses come again
When the roses come again
I will need you I will great you
When the roses come again

Sunshine over clover
Blossom on the meadow wide
Some I finger sweet to linger
Everywhere on every side
Someone's roaming in the gloaming
Happy hearts that fed no pain
An the sadness turns to gladness
Now the roses come again
