Tom Waits – The Briar And The Rose Lyrics  Share

From Tom Waits's album: The Black Rider

I fell asleep down by the stream
And there I had the strangest dream
And down by Brennan,s Glenn there grows
A briar and a rose

There,s a tree in the forest
But I don,t know where
I built a nest out of your hair
And climbing up into the air
A briar and a rose

I don,t know how long it has been
But I was born in Brennan,s Glenn
And near the end of spring there grows
A briar and a rose

P icked the rose one early morn
[ The Briar And The Rose lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/t/tom-waits/briar-and-rose/ ]
I pricked my finger on a thorn
It had grown so high
It,s winding wove the briar around the rose

I tried to tear them both apart
I felt a bullet in my heart
And all dressed up in springs and clothes
The briar and the rose

And when I,m buried in my grave
Tell me so I will know
Your tears will fall
To make love grow
The briar and the rose
