Red rose out of the east
Tell the love I love least. "Who knows?
Red rose out of the west
Tell the love I love best "Love is a rose"
Only a rose I give you.
Only a song dying away,
Only a smile to keep in memory
Until we meet another day.
Only a rose to whisper,
Blushing as roses do,
"I'll bring along a smile or a song for anyone"
Only a rose for you.
Jean:
Only a rose you give me.
Only a song dying away,
Only a smile to keep in memory
Until we meet another day.
Jean: Only a rose to whisper, (Oreste: Only a rose to whisper,)
Jean: Blushing as roses do, (Oreste: Blushing as roses do,)
Jean and Oreste:
"I'll bring along a smile or a song for anyone"
Only a rose for you.
