One wild rose in the dew | A |

Following the cows that went | A |
Through roses wet with dew | A |

Shy she was as the twilight skies | B |

At the slowly coming stars | C |
Over the pasture bars | C |

The smell of the hay came warm and sweet | A |
From the field there where he stood | A |

But she answered the one await | A |
By the tree at the end of the road | A |
Where the fireflies' lights were sowed | A |

Oh I can see them yet | A |
In the dusk of the long ago | H |
Two lovers walking slow | H |
And my eyes with tears are wet | A |
For the love of the long ago | H |
Love of the long ago | H |
