Red Rose

Oh Caroline hold me close

Let me whisper in your ear

Let me touch your golden hair one more time

I feel so cold, the end is near

Oh Caroline dry your eyes

You know how I hate goodbyes

One last kiss child, please be brave

And put one red rose on my grave

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

The love we have

Is all that we can save

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

Caroline bring my body home

I do not wish to lie alone

Let them bury me beneath the weeping willow tree

It's getting so dark, to dark to see

Caroline try to understand

The road to glory our lives pave

And as the angels take my hand

Leave one red rose on my grave

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

The love we have

Is all that we can save

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

The love we have

Is all that we can save

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave

Oh Caroline hold me close

Let me whisper in your ear

The love we have

Is all that we can save

Sha na na na

Put a red rose on my grave
