Root Like A Rose Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

There's a green, green palce 

Where you lift your face 

To the sound of the waves and the wind 

Down by the shore 

Where my soul does endure 

Where the mother sea ends and begins. 

Take me home 

To the sand and the foam 

Where my dreams walk in the mist 

I'll fall to the earth and root like a rose 

In the salt land 

That gave me my verse.

Though I wander afar 

The same sea, the same stars 

Still shine to the tears in my eyes 

They take me home to a land 

That my soul understands 

Where the heart of the rose never dies.

Take me home 

To the sand and the foam 

Where my dreams walk in the mist 

I'll fall to the earth and root like a rose 

In the salt land 

That gave me my verse...
