When the roses come again,

voiceCollected by Max Hunter Transcribed by Frances Majors Sung by Mrs. Gladys Everly Springfield, Missouri April 20, 1958 Reel 236, Item 6 When the Roses Come Again 'Neath the shadows down the meadow Daisies lie on every side; By the river, flowers shiver, Fading, dying in their prime; Someone surely long delaying, Sad the parting down the lane , "I must leave you," someone's saying, 'Till the roses come again." Chorus: When the roses come again, When the roses come again, I will meet you, I will greet you, When the roses come again. As I wander I will ponder On the happy by-and-by; Only summer over yonder Brought a joy to you and I; Do not borrow grief or sorrow In the hours that yet remain; We shall know a glad tomorrow When the roses come again. Sunshine over the crimson clover, Blossoms on the meadows wide; Summer fingers sweetly linger Everywhere on every side; Someone's roaming in the floaming, Happy hearts that feel no pain; For all is sadness turned to gladness, Now that roses bloom again.
