English Rose Songtext / Lyric

Across the sea

By the Tennessee skyline

They told me I'd find my

Hopes and my dreams



But I long to be

In the bed of my true love

Back where I came from

She's waiting for me



So I'll make my way

Through long winding country roads

But my heart still beats

For my home and my English rose



I told my dad

On the phone it's amazing

From the straight to the crazy

These places I've seen






But I long to be

In the arms of my true love

Like he loves my mother

He understands me



I'll spend my days

Just travelling and playing shows

But my heart still beats

For my home and my English rose



I met a man

In the bar down in Memphis

And he told me he went there

To follow his dreams



He told me "Son

You know I lost my true love

For the same exact reason

That you crossed the sea"



And I found truth

In people I barely know

But my heart still beats

For my home and my English rose

Oh my heart still beats

For my home and my English rose

Oh my heart still beats

For my home and my English rose
