A Teardrop Kissed A Rose

Once a long time ago
There was a magic garden wall
It could grant a wish
If it's secret you could recall

I'll give you that secret
For nobody knows
A tear must kiss the petal
Of a red, red rose

A lonesome lass sat upon the magic wall
Not even being aware of its magic at all
She longed for her lad, so the old story goes
And her teardrop kissed the petal
Of a red, red rose

She didn't realize just what she had done
So she made a little wish just to have some fun
She wished for a husband,
A prince in kingly clothes
And her teardrop kissed the petal
Of a red, red rose

By the magic garden wall
Where a screen of mist began
It had to give the answer to this secret command
From the cloudy mist came a very gentle hand
It was a prince charming
A good and handsome man

By the magic garden wall
They were wed
And lived so happily
Everyone has said
Now the secret is out
And everybody knows
A tear must kiss the petal
Of a red, red rose

Try to find the garden
Where the red rose grows
Her teardrop kissed the petal
Of a red, red rose
