Susan McCann - The Rose Of Allendale Lyrics

Lyrics The Rose Of Allendale - Susan McCann



Oh the sky was clear, the morning was fair
No breath came over the sea
When Mary left her highland home
And wandered forth with me
All flowers decked the mountain side
And fragrance filled the vale
By far the sweetest flower there
Was the Rose of Allendale
Sweet rose of Allendale, sweet rose of Allendale
By far the sweetest flower there was the Rose of Allendale
Where 'er I wander to the East and the West
And faith began to lower
Consoling still was she to me in sorrow's lonely hour
Oh, tempest wrecked my lonely boat
And it wrecked the quivering sails
One maiden fond withstood the storm
Was the Rose of Allendale
Sweet rose of Allendale, sweet rose of Allendale
By far the sweetest flower there was the Rose of Allendale
And when my feeble lips are parched
On Africa's burning sands
She whispered hopes of happiness
And tales of foreign lands
My life has been a wilderness
Unblessed by fortune's gain
Had faith not linked my love to her
Sweet Rose of Allendale
Sweet rose of Allendale, sweet rose of Allendale
By far the sweetest flower there, was the Rose of Allendale
