The Bramble and the Rose
(Barbara Keith)


We have been so close together
Each a candle, each a flame
All the dangers were outside us
And we knew them all by name

See how the bramble and the rose
Intertwine
Love grows like a bramble and a rose
Round each other we will twine

Now I've hurt you, and it hurts me
Just to see what we can do
To ourselves and to each other
Without really meaning to

So put your arms around me
And we'll sing a true love song
We will learn to sing together
Sing and laugh the whole night long.
