Words and music by Justin Neway

Verse 1
I once met a rose bud as beautiful as the dawn
And her hair it shone as bright as the sun
When she wore it long and gold
And I must go

Verse 2
I must be on my way and there’s sadness in my soul
The road I take is long so I’ll sing a song
To ease my mind and pray
I must go

Bridge
To wander o’er the hills alone beneath the smiling trees alone
Along the sands of time and not to share with anyone
I cannot go

Verse 3
I’ll rest a while and linger, perchance the bud will flower
And grow to love the day, yes flowers bloom that way
But for the while she said
I’d have to go

Verse 4
I once met a rose bud as beautiful as the dawn
And her hair it shone as bright as the sun
When she wore it long and gold
And I must go
The wind will blow
And I must go
