San Antonio Rose (1967) Songtext
von Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys

Ah-ha
That San Antonio Rose, ah

Ah-ha
Deep within my heart lies a melody (aw, tell ′em, Tommy)
A song of old San Antone (San Antone)
Where in dreams I live with a memory (yes, yes, go on)
Beneath the stars all alone (all alone)

It was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above
A moonlit path that only she would know (imagine)
Still hears my broken song of love


Moon in all your splendor knows only my heart
Call back my Rose, Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals fallin' 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 path by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone

Ah, Junior, yeah

Ah-ha

Moon in all your splendor knows only my heart
Call back my Rose, Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals fallin′ apart
Speak once again of my love, my own

Oh, broken song, empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit path by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone
