| [00:10] |
She is watching by the poplars |
| [00:14] |
Colinette with the sea-blue eyes |
| [00:20] |
She is watching and longing and waiting |
| [00:24] |
Where the long white roadway lies |
| [00:29] |
And a song stirs in the silence |
| [00:35] |
As the wind in the boughs above |
| [00:40] |
She listens and starts and trembles |
| [00:47] |
'Tis the first little song of love |
| [00:55] |
Roses are shining in Picardy |
| [01:01] |
In he hush of the silver dew |
| [01:09] |
Roses are flow'ring in Picardy |
| [01:15] |
But there's never a rose like you |
| [01:21] |
And the roses will die with the summertime |
| [01:28] |
And our roads may be far apart |
| [01:35] |
But there's one rose that dies not in Picardy |
| [01:42] |
'Tis the rose that I keep in my heart |
| [02:00] |
And the years fly on forever |
| [02:05] |
Till the shadows veil their skies |
| [02:10] |
But he loves to hold her little hands |
| [02:16] |
And look into her sea-blue eyes |
| [02:21] |
And she sees the road by the poplars |
| [02:26] |
Where they met in the bygone years |
| [02:31] |
For the first little song of the roses |
| [02:38] |
Is the last little song she hears: |
| [02:47] |
Roses are shining in Picardy |
| [02:54] |
In the hush of the silver dew |
| [03:02] |
Roses are flow'ring in Picardy |
| [03:08] |
But there's never a rose like you |
| [03:15] |
And the roses will die with the summertime |
| [03:22] |
And our roads may be far apart |
| [03:29] |
But there's one rose that dies not in Picardy |
| [03:36] |
'Tis the rose that I keep in my heart |
