Only a Rose (from "The Vagabond King")

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. 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.
