First Line: Two lines of blushing roses go dancing down the lane
Last Line: Two lines of wild pink roses are making dreams for me.
Subject(s): Flowers; Roses
Two lines of blushing roses go dancing down the lane,
But stop in wild confusion before the shining sea;
They tiptoe to the sunbeams and bow before the rain,
And every rose is dancing across the heart of me.
They throw their petal-kisses to zephyrs passing by,
And flirt in fragrant whispers with every nodding tree;
But when the stars are dancing across the silver sky
Two lines of wild pink roses are making dreams for me.
