Lyrics

V1
She stood at the edge of my world and my feet
A purple rose in her hair, a sight oh so sweet
She's leaving on a plane for Dublin tomorrow
Her eyes full of longing, her heart so discrete

Chorus
There’s a purple rose in her hair
a symbol of our love
A sad reminder tomorrow she’ll be gone
A purple rose in her hair

V2
I try to hold on, I try to be strong
But she’ll always be there with me just like an old country song
She’s going back home but she’ll always be mine
I want to hold onto this moment for now and all time

Chorus

Bridge
A wave goodbye with a kiss in the air
I'll always remember her standing right there
With a purple rose in her blond flaxen hair
A symbol of the love that we both felt and shared

Outro
She got on that plane with that rose in her hair
A love that’s forever, forever and more
A purple rose in her blond flaxen hair
I hope she’ll remember my love and my care

A purple rose in her hair
