Tennessee Rose Lyrics by Emmylou Harris

Tennessee Rose Lyrics

    (karen brooks/hank devito)

    Well it's a sweet dream
    That keeps me close to you dear
    And it's a sad thing
    That we're apart i'm blue dear
    And there are times now
    I thank the heavens up above

    When i'm with the one that i love
    Now there are diamonds
    That some may long to see
    And they may shine
    But not bright enough for me
    I wouldn't take no

    The whole world dipped in gold
    For a night with my tennessee rose
    Take this love that i am giving
    For it's truly the lasting kind
    The gift i hold is believing
    That you will always be mine

    Take this love that i am giving
    For it's truly the lasting kind
    The gift i hold is believing
    That you will always be mine
    Well it's a sweet dream
    That keeps me close to you dear

    And it's a sad thing
    That we're apart i'm blue dear
    And there are times now
    That heaven only knows
    How i love my tennessee rose
    Only my tennessee rose
