Emmylou Harris - Root Like A Rose lyrics

There's a green, green palce Where you lift your face To the sound of the waves and the wind Down by the shore Where my soul does endure Where the mother sea ends and begins. Take me home To the sand and the foam Where my dreams walk in the mist I'll fall to the earth and root like a rose In the salt land That gave me my verse. Though I wander afar The same sea, the same stars Still shine to the tears in my eyes They take me home to a land That my soul understands Where the heart of the rose never dies. Take me home To the sand and the foam Where my dreams walk in the mist I'll fall to the earth and root like a rose In the salt land That gave me my verse...
