A Gift Of Roses Lyrics

The song A Gift Of Roses is performed by Jethro Tull in the album named J-Tull Dot Com in the year 1999 .



I count the hours: you count the days.
Together, we count the minutes in this pa*sion play.
Walk dusty miles. and I ride that train
On a first cla*s ticket, just to be with you again.

Picking up tired feet. back from a far horizon.
Cleaned up and brushed down. dressed to look the part.
Fresh from god's garden, I bring a gift of roses:
To stand in sweet spring water and press them to your heart.

Like the kipling cat, I walk alone -
Never inviting trouble, never casting the stone.
But this badge of honour is of tarnished tin.
Lightyour guiding beacon to bring this fisher in.
