Once upon a time there was a man
He carried on his back dark roses
He was looking all his life for his true love
He called her, "The girl with the golden crown"
The girl with the golden crown
The man with dark roses
Never did he see such beauty
As the girl he knew was his eternal bride
And all the while he carried those dark roses
To give to her as a token of his heart
The years passed on but still never did they meet
He kept watering his burden and longing for her in his sleep
The girl with the golden crown
The man with dark roses
The girl with the golden crown
The girl with the golden crown
Now the legend goes he kept on searching till the very night he died
Buried with his dream his grave forever weeps
On a hill on dark roses growing underneath a golden sky
It was the girl with the golden crown
With the golden crown
