Don`t Kill It Carol — текст песни (Manfred Mann`s Earth Band)

DON`T KILL IT CAROL
(Heron) Published by EMI Music Pub. Ltd.

This wild rose that I hold in my hand
It`s the strangest thing I`ve seen,
One bud only just started to show,
And the leaves are the lightest green.
It`s had it`s share of the rain,
It needs some feeling to light it`s fiery flame again,
But one cruel lie and it could die.

(Don`t kill it Carol)
Oh Carol oh, won`t you let this flower grow,
Don`t kill it Carol.
Oh Carol oh, won`t you let this flower grow,
Don`t kill it Carol.

This wild rose that I hold in my hand,
It could grow to be so strong,
Born one night in the calm of the storm,
It was made for a rock and roll song.
It`s only just seen the light,
It could so easily fall back to the gentle night,
But one cruel lie and it could die.

(Don`t kill it Carol)
Oh Carol oh, won`t you let this flower grow,
Don`t kill it Carol.
Oh Carol oh, won`t you let this flower grow,
Don`t kill it Carol.

It`s looking for a place to live outside all space and time,
Where there`s no need for it to fade.
There`s a secret garden that I think we can find,
Lot`s of sunshine there`s a touch of shade.

(Don`t kill it Carol)

This wild rose that I hold in my hand
It`s the strangest thing I`ve seen,
One bud only just started to show,
And the leaves are the lightest green.
It`s had it`s share of the rain,
It needs some feeling to light it`s fiery flame again,
But one cruel lie and it could die.

(Don`t kill it Carol)
Oh Carol oh, won`t you let this flower grow,
Don`t kill it Carol.
Oh Carol oh, won`t you let this flower grow,
Don`t kill it Carol.
[repeat to fade]
