Like a rose that grows within a wildwood
You are young and warm and wild and free
And my heart, I gave to you with love
And with love, my wildwood rose
You gave your heart to me
Wildwood rose, farewell for I must leave you
I must make my harvest from the sea
And I know I leave you with my love
And I know my wildwood rose
I take your love with me
If I die alone upon the water
Not return to warmth and love and thee
When you walk the strand
And tiny wavelets kiss your feet
Then will you stand
And say a little prayer for me
If I die alone upon the water
Not return to warmth and love and thee
When you walk the strand
And tiny wavelets kiss your feet
Then will you stand
And say a little prayer for me
When you walk the strand
And tiny wavelets kiss your feet
Then will you stand
And say a little prayer for me
Just a little prayer, for me
Just a little prayer for me
For me...
Just say a little prayer for me
