Holly, Ivy, And Rose Lyrics - Midwinter Graces - Tori Amos

Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming 

From tender stem hath sprung! 

Of Jesse's lineage coming 

By ancient sibyls sung 

A rose doth bear a flower 

All in the cold midwinter 

And at the midnight hour 

And he waits for who to find 

The heart she left behind 

And he prays she'll find her way 

To be his bride someday

Ivy 

Of all the trees in the wood 

Holly wants/woos the Rose 

Holly and the Ivy 

When they are both full grown 

Of all the trees in the wood 

Holly bears the crown 

Holly and the Ivy 

The running of the deer 

For his Rose to bloom 

Holly waits every year 

He waits for who to find 

The heart she left behind 

He prays she'll find her way 

To be his bride someday 

Ivy 

Of all the trees in the wood 

Holly wants/woos the Rose 

Holly and the Ivy 

When they are both full grown 

Of all the trees in the wood 

Holly bears the crown 

The holly and the Ivy 

The running of the deer 

For his Rose to bloom 

Holly waits every year 

For his Rose to bloom 

Holly waits every year 

Waits every year 

Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming 

From tender stem hath sprung! 

The frozen air perfuming 

That tiny bloom doth swell 

Its rays the night illuming 

The darkness quite dispel 

O flower beyond compare 

Bloom in our heart's midwinter 

Restore the springtime here.
