The Jet Black Rose
by Ken Bewick

The jet black rose will come for me
In the middle of my tale
Bolt the door and cast the key
The jet black rose will come for me
So take your seat the fire's fine
The floor is cold, pull up a chair
Take your glass and taste the wine
The jet black rose will find me here

I came looking for the key
Caught it squarely in the nose
Found a love and she gave me
A petal from the jet black rose
I kissed her and she came inside
Her eyes were blue, her feet were bare
She wore her garland like a crown
Of jet black roses in her hair

The years they passed, we planted seeds
Some seasons good, some times were hard
Twined among the leaves of green
Grew jet black roses in the yard
So take your seat and fill your wine
The winter's cold, the moon is near
Take your last call, I've had mine
The jet black rose will find me here
