"San Antonio Rose" lyrics - LEON RUSSELL

LEON RUSSELL
"San Antonio Rose"

Deep within my heart lies a melody,
A song of old San Antone.
Where in dreams I live with a memory,
Beneath the stars all alone.
It was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above.
A moonlit pass only she would know,
Still hears my broken song of love.
Moon in all your splendor, know only my heart
Call back my Rose, Rose of San Antone.
Lips so sweet and tender, like petals falling apart.
Speak once again of my love, my own.
Broken song, empty words I know still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit pass by the Alamo, and Rose, my Rose of San Antone.
