Only The Black Rose — текст песни (The Yardbirds)

(Keith Relf)
Gone, gone away,
Gone away,
Almost nothing to do.
Gone away,
Now I`m far from you,
Though I`m alone now,
And there`s nobody near,
I hush my voice,
Lest they should hear;
My prayers go up to the sky,
Deep within me I die,
I`ll never cry,
No-one must see me this way.

Left, left to find,
Someone kind,
Who won`t leave me behind,
Who will guide me,
When I am blind;
Soothe my brow,
When thoughts hurt my brain;
Help me love,
When faced with pain.
I long to find someone who,
Will remind me of you,
Only the black rose knows what I will do.

Silence, silence now,
Not a sound,
Stillness everywhere now,
And the trees,
To the wind gently bow,
Only visions of the past and the gloom,
And for the moment you`re in the room,
And just as flowers bloom and die,
No-one watching to cry,
Only the black rose stands up to the sky.
Only the black rose stands up to the sky.
Only the black rose.
