We've been so close together Each a candle, each a flame All the dangers were outside us And we knew them all by name Now see how the bramble and the rose intertwines Now love grows like the bramble and the rose Often cruel, often kind Now, I've hurt you and it hurts me Just to see what we can do To ourselves and to each other Without really meaning to Now see how the bramble and the rose intertwines Now love grows like the bramble and the rose 'Round each other they will wind So put your arms around me Yes, and sing a true love song One that we can sing together That will last the whole night long So see how the bramble and the rose intertwines Love grows like the bramble and the rose 'Round each other we will wind Now love grows like the bramble and the rose
