Baez, Joan - Rose Of Sharon Lyrics






I am a rose of Sharon
A lily of the valley
As a lily grown among the thorns
Love in this world has found me

As an apple tree among the trees
Growing deep in the forest
My lover's form is comely
With life and limb most joyous

Rise up my love and come away
The rain is over and gone
Your love is fruit of my darkest day
And I am your Rose of Sharon

His gentle hand lies under my head
His shoulders turn to face me
I shall not stir him from my bed
While he does so embrace me

Oh, bring me wine to pass the time
Though none but him can soothe me
I am my beloved's and he is mine
Desire for his pleasure moves me

Rise up my love and come away
The rain is over and gone
Your love is fruit of my darkest day
And I am your Rose of Sharon

Rise up my love and come away
The rain is over and gone
Your love is fruit of my darkest day
And I am your Rose of Sharon

    I am a Rose of Sharon
    A lily of the valley
    As a lily grows
    Among the thorns
    Love in this world
    Has found me

    As an apple tree
    Among the trees
    That grow deep in the forest
    My lover's form is comely
    With life and limb most joyous

    Rise up my love and come away
    the rain is over and gone
    Your love is the fruit of my darkest day
    And I am your Rose of Sharon

    His gentle hand lies under my head
    His shoulders turned to face me
    I shall not stir him from my bed
    While he doth so embrace me

    Oh bring me wine to pass the time
    Though none but him can soothe me
    I am my beloved's
    And he is mine
    Desire for his pleasure moves me

    Rise up my love and come away
    the rain is over and gone
    Your love is the fruit of my darkest day
    And I am your Rose of Sharon.

    Me too. I was really dismayed when I found that this version wasn't uploaded elsewhere. Thanks a billion :D

    Thanks for uploading this. I love this song and listen to it over and over. This version is a bit slicker and more up tempo than Eliza Gilkyson's. They're both great but this is the one I prefer.
