In Search of a Rose Songtext

von The Waterboys

Where will I wander and wonder ?
Nobody knows
But wherever I'm going I'll go
In search of a rose

Whatever the will of the weather
And whether it shines or snows
Wherever I'm going I'll go
In search of a rose

I don't know where it's found
But I don't mind
As long as the world spins around
I'll take my time

I may follow the fellow who fiddles
I may put on a merchant's clothes
But wherever I'm going I'll go
In search of a rose

I don't know where I'm bound
Oh, and I don't care
As long as the world spins around
I'll be there !

I'll savour the softness of summer
I'll wrap up when winter blows
And wherever I'm going I'll go
In search of a rose

Dublin November 1987
