Rose Rose I Love YouVersion) - Frank Sinatra
Rose Rose I love you with an aching heart
What is your future now we have to part
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
Flower of Malaya I cannot stay
Make way oh make way for my Eastern Rose
Men crowd in dozens everywhere she goes
In her rickshaw on the street or in a cabaret
"Please make way for Rose " you can hear them say
All my life I shall remember oriental music
And you in my arms
Perfumed flowers in your tresses
Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms
Rose Rose I love you with your almond eyes
Fragrant and slender 'neath tropical skies
I must cross the seas again
And never see you more
Way back to my home on a distant shore
All my life I shall remember oriental music
And you in my arms
Perfumed flowers in your tresses
Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms
Rose Rose I leave you; my ship is in the bay
Kiss me farewell now there's nothing to say
East is east and west is west
Our worlds are far apart
I must leave you now but I leave my heart
Rose Rose I love you with an aching heart
What is your future now we have to part
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
Flower of Malaya I cannot stay
