Sea Wolf - The Rose Captain lyrics

rate me

This part's for my love of old

How the rose in your heart you hold

Still all the water in your wells won't make it grow

Oh the call of the nightingale

How I love beneath the ghostly sails

We move like gypsies 'neath the mist and beneath the gloom

Oh how the river flows

Under the ice and snow

The keeper of the flame

The rose captain knows my name

This perfume breath I breathed

For you my dear, my love will never leave

This part's for my love of new

How the bulbs in my heart are true

They send the shoots through my fingers into your bones

Oh the call of the collared dove

How I long to be your one true love

We'll move like gypsies 'neath the stars and beneath the moon

Oh how the river flows

Under the ice and snow

The keeper of the flame

The rose captain knows our names

This perfume breath we breathed

For you my dear, my love will never leave

Oh the rose captain knows, knows our names

Oh the rose captain knows, he knows our names
