Love Is A Rose

Love Is A Rose
Michael Kiwanuka
(Neil Young cover @Summerstage Central Park 29/7/13)
Love is a rose
So you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine.
A handful of thorns and
You'll know you've missed it
You lose your love
When you say the word "mine".

I want to see what's never been seen,
I want to live that age old dream.
Come on, lads, let's go together
Let's take the best right now,
Take the best right now.
I want to go to an old hoe-down
Long ago in a western town.
Pick me up when my feet are dragging
Lift me up and I'll hay your wagon.
I want to see what's never been seen,
I want to live that age old dream.
Come on, lads, let's go together
Let's take the best right now,
Take the best right now.
Love is a rose
So you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine.
A handful of thorns and
You'll know you've missed it
You lose your love
When you say the word "mine".
Love is a rose (love is a rose)...
