1
Beware of your heart, it's cruel and it's careless
2
More dangerous by far than the beasts in the wood
3
Beware wicked thoughts that come creeping and crawling
4
The shadow of dreams that can never come good
5
She's the talk of the town, the pride of the valley
6
Comes out with the sun and pours gold on the day
7
She knows all your names and smiles warm on your faces
8
But rosabel's wild as the briar in may
9
When each house lay asleep she's dropped from her window
10
In a blanket of darkness crept out of the town
11
And she' skipped up to faelen woods picking dog roses
12
No fear of the shadows that watched all around
13
She's plucked up her fill, and laughed in the moonshine
14
In warm summer's evening she's danced 'cross the moor
15
First twisting and turning, then tripping an falling
16
And lifeless she's lain on the heather bed floor
17
When she's woke up, a fire's hot glowing
18
She's tucked in silk sheets with lord john watching there
19
Saying "sleep, beauty sleep, lose your mind in warm dreaming
20
You're safe in my house and well mending with care"
21
In fever she's burned, but time's proved in healing
22
Made ready to leave but been blocked on the way
23
"Oh you thief you were wrong to go picking my roses!
24
And for stealing from me it's right he that you'll stay"
25
"Oh john you're so proud, and silent, and stubborn!
26
You're bigger than most and unkempt it is true
27
But I've grown fond of your ways and your quiet woodland keeping
28
And be I thief or no, I will stay here with you"
29
It's seven years gone, and seven years married
30
And seven slow years she's been counting the hours
31
"Oh my husband's uncomely and will not look on me
32
I long rue the day I went picking his flowers"
33
Now take heed young girls, here's rosa's undoing;
34
There's a diary she keeps of her sorrows and cares
35
If you write yourself down then you're asking for trouble
36
It's the nature of words to be read and be shared
37
One grey summer's morning she slipped into town
38
With excuses of shopping but for fresh company
39
Oh and who should be there but some boys from the army
40
And james the most charming in every degree
41
It isn't by chance he's strolled past her window
42
Nor by chance she's met him out walking alone
43
And they've tied up there love in the long july grasses
44
'Till with the steal dawn she's gone tiptoeing home
45
She's gone to the kitchen, but lord john's crept after
46
He's found her at writing and read just a few lines
47
Oh he rants and he rages and tears up the pages
48
And in the grief of betrayal she's fled from his cries
49
She's run for the woods, and he's tried to call after
50
But the chill death of heartbreak has stolen his moan
51
And she caught in the thorns of his wild dog roses
52
And there james has found her cold dead as the stone
53
Beware of your heart, it's cruel and it's careless
54
More dangerous by far than the beasts in the wood
55
Beware wicked thoughts that come creeping and crawling
56
The shadow of dreams that can never come good
