When The Roses Bloom Again - Don Reno/Bill Harrell/The Tennessee Cut-Ups
Lyrics by：Traditional
Composed by：Traditional
They were strolling in the gloaming
Where the roses were in bloom
A soldier and his sweetheart fine and true
And their hearts were filled with sorrow
For their thoughts were of tomorrow
He must go away the John can false and blue
Do not ask me love to linger
Oh you know not what you say
When duty calls your voices all in vein
Let not your heart be sighing
If I'm not among the dying
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
When the roses bloom again
Beside the river
And the mockingbird has sung his sweet refrain
In the days of auld lang syne
I'll be with you sweetheart mine
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
From the rattle of the battle
Came a whisper soft and low
From a soldier who had fallen in the fray
I am dying captain dying
And I know I'll have to go
But I want to promise there are I pass away
There's a far and distant river
Where the roses are in bloom
And a little girl is waiting out in vein
And it's there I pray you take me
I've been faithful don't forsake me
I'll be with her when the roses bloom again
When the roses bloom again
Beside the river
And the mockingbird has sung his sweet refrain
In the days of auld lang syne
I'll be with you sweetheart mine
I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
