Lyrics
I'd pluck a fair rose for my love
I'd pluck a red rose blowing
Love's in my heart
A-trying so to prove
What your heart's knowing
I'd pluck a finger on a thorn
I'd pluck a finger bleeding
Red is my heart
Wounded and forlorn
And your heart needing
I'd hold a finger to my tongue
I'd hold a finger waiting
My heart is sore
Until it joins in song
Wi' your heart matingβ‘
I'd pluck a red rose blowing
Love's in my heart
A-trying so to prove
What your heart's knowing
I'd pluck a finger on a thorn
I'd pluck a finger bleeding
Red is my heart
Wounded and forlorn
And your heart needing
I'd hold a finger to my tongue
I'd hold a finger waiting
My heart is sore
Until it joins in song
Wi' your heart matingβ‘
