Tom Waits - The Briar & The Rose Lyrics

Font:

Align:

I fell asleep down by the stream

And there I had the strangest dream

And down by brennans glenn there grows

A briar and a rose

Theres a tree in the forest

But I dont know where

I built a nest out of your hair

And climbing up into the air

A briar and a rose

I dont know how long it has been

But I was born in brennans glenn

And near the end of spring there grows

A briar and a rose

P icked the rose one early morn

I pricked my finger on a thorn

It had grown so high

Its winding wove the briar around the rose

I tried to tear them both apart

I felt a bullet in my heart

And all dressed up in springs and clothes

The briar and the rose

And when Im buried in my grave

Tell me so I will know

Your tears will fall

To make love grow

The briar and the rose
