The Last Rose Of Summer
It was the summer that walked out the door,
I heard a baby cry, I saw the lovers kiss
I held her in my arms and said ,
in my world ,
you are the garden of life,
you are the last rose of summer.
As I placed you in my button hole there
The perfume arose like a pearl from the ocean,
I smelt the life that caressed my face.
The worlds a better place because of you ,
Oh sweet last rose of summer.
As soft petals begin to fall.
Until the day when I see you again,
Until the new buds of life return ,
I will listen to what the world has to say about you
lovely last rose of summer .
