Roses Of Picardy, lyric by Perry Como

from the songs album Wednesday Night Music Hall

Roses are shining in picardy
In the hush of the silvery dew
Roses are flowering in picardy
But there's never a rose like you!

And the roses will die with the summertime
And our roads may be far, far apart
But there's one rose that dies not in picardy
'tis the rose that i keep in my heart!

< instrumental break >

But there's never a rose like you!

And the roses will die with the summertime
And our roads may be far, far apart
But there's one rose that dies not in picardy
'tis the rose that i keep in my heart!
