Текст песни: Rose of London + перевод

Across the waves, and o’er the mountains

Into the streets of London fair

I dream a house, and through a window

I reach to touch her shining hair

Now you could say she’s grand, and you’d be mistaken

For I’ve not found the words to say

My life in her hands, and my heart she’s taken

across the sea, so far away

And a second passed is a second wasted

every smile I draw, is a smile in vain

every breath I take is a waste of breathing

until my love comes home again

Now I’ve been to the pubs, and how I’ve been drinking

I’ve raised me glass to a thousand men

and I’ve seen the charms of a thousand women

but I long for rest, and to sleep again

For there’s peace in a dream, and there’s pain in waking

to know this time has just begun

So tonight I’ll rise, and i’ll sing this sweetly

to the Rose of London
