Lyrics

THE COLOR OF THE ROSE

HEY YOU, DO YOU REMEMBER
THAT WEEK-END IN JULY
THAT TIME OF SWEET SURRENDER
ON A HOT SUMMER?S NIGHT
THE CAMPFIRE AND THE MUSIC
AT THAT BEACH-HOUSE DOWN THE ROAD
HEY YOU, DO YOU REMEMBER
THE COLOR OF THE ROSE

AND THAT SANDY BEACH
AND THAT DISTANT SHORELINE
WE LOOKED AT THE MOON
AND O?RION?S SWORD
AND WE TALKED PHILOSOPHY
AND WE DRANK TEQUILA
AND WE FELL IN LOVE
BEFORE THE MORNING SUN

THOSE MEMORIES DO FADE
SO I KEEP THEM IN MY POCKET
YOU?RE HAIR OF GOLDEN BRAID
AND THAT PICTURE IN A LOCKET

THAT SKY LOOKS JUST THE SAME NOW
THO THE YEARS DO COME AND GO
HEY YOU, DO YOU REMEMBER
THE COLOR OF THE ROSE
