Emmylou Harris - Root Like A Rose lyrics

[Emmylou Harris - Root Like A Rose lyrics]

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'll 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 to the tears in my eyes
They take me home to a
Land that my soul understands
Where the heart of 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
