catie curtis - roses lyrics
am i the kind of brother who would leave you
standing on this lonesome railroad track?
that’s what i told you on the way to america
i swore by our god i’d be coming back
when the roses are blooming
you can call me home
and i will stay there forever
my flesh and bone
i wanted to see you that christmas
but i got a letter i was being sent to war
i packed up the bible that you gave me
and i prayed for protection beneath the watch of the lord
when the roses are blooming
you can call me home
and i will stay there forever
my flesh and bone
there is a garden
i can see it from my bed
reminds me of ireland
flowering yellow and red
i’ve been trying to write you but i keep stopping
all i’ve got to say is war is h-ll
i keep thinking about the soldiers coming at me
not the ones that shot me but the ones that i brought down myself
and i don’t think jesus ever heard my prayer
if there’s a heaven, i ain’t going there
when the roses are blooming
you can call me home
and i will stay there forever
my flesh and bone
