F. Loewe: I Never Met A Rose - Richard Kiley, Douglas Gamley, Фредерик Лоу

Oh I have met a daisy\nBut where we met is hazy\nAnd I have walked the streets\nWith marguerites\nAnd clinging vines beside me\nOh I’ve met a lot of those\nBut I never met a rose\nThere’s often been a heather\nAn armful all together\nAnd I have even met a violet\nWho almost satisfied me\nYes I’ve met every kind that grows\nBut I never met a rose\nAmong the dahlias\nI often dally\nI left a lily in the valley\nBut now and then I ponder\nAnd wonder as I wander\nAmong the fields and shrub\nPerhaps the trouble is\nWho knows\nThat I never met a rose\nNever, never met a rose\nWhile roaming through the clover\nCould I have passed her over\nWhen all is said and done\nAm I the one to blame\nWho knows\nThat I never met a rose\nNever, never met a rose
