Lyrics for English Rose

No matter where I roam I will return to my English rose For no bonds can ever tempt me from she I've sailed the seven seas Flown the whole blue sky But I've returned with haste to where my Love does lie No matter where I go, I will come back to my English Rose For nothing can ever tempt me from she I've searched the secret mists I've climbed the highest peaks Caught the wild wind home To hear her soft voice speak No matter where I roam I will return to my English Rose For no bonds can ever keep me from she I've been to ancient worlds I've scoured the whole universe And caught the first train home To be at her side No matter where I roam I will return to my English Rose For no bonds can keep me from she
