TORI AMOS - Holly, Ivy And Rose lyrics
rate me<span class="feat">(feat. Natashya Hawley)</span><br>
<br>
Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming <br />
From tender stem hath sprung! <br />
Of Jesse's lineage coming <br />
By ancient sibyls sung <br />
<br />
A rose doth bear a flower <br />
All in the cold midwinter <br />
And at the midnight hour <br />
<br />
And he waits for who to find <br />
The heart she left behind <br />
And he prays she'll find her way <br />
To be his bride someday <br />
<br />
Ivy <br />
Of all the trees in the wood <br />
Holly wants/woos the Rose <br />
Holly and the Ivy <br />
When they are both full grown <br />
Of all the trees in the wood <br />
Holly bears the crown <br />
Holly and the Ivy <br />
The running of the deer <br />
For his Rose to bloom <br />
Holly waits every year <br />
<br />
He waits for who to find <br />
The heart she left behind <br />
He prays she'll find her way <br />
To be his bride someday <br />
<br />
Ivy <br />
Of all the trees in the wood <br />
Holly wants/woos the Rose <br />
Holly and the Ivy <br />
When they are both full grown <br />
Of all the trees in the wood <br />
Holly bears the crown <br />
The holly and the Ivy <br />
The running of the deer <br />
For his Rose to bloom <br />
Holly waits every year <br />
For his Rose to bloom <br />
Holly waits every year <br />
Waits every year <br />
<br />
Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming <br />
From tender stem hath sprung! <br />
The frozen air perfuming <br />
That tiny bloom doth swell <br />
Its rays the night illuming <br />
The darkness quite dispel <br />
<br />
O flower beyond compare <br />
Bloom in our heart's midwinter <br />
Restore the springtime here.
