If I should fall a final time
And never breathe again
Take me home where the black rose grows
And 'neath the shadowed boughs
The forest is where I came up
That's where you'll lay me down

Along the stream where I was wed
You'll find me once again
For my home where the black rose grows
Is where I spoke my vows
Every tie that I did bind
Was given here my friend

Remember me, that I did bleed
For forest and for kin
It's my home where the black rose grows
In the wood to the south
Among these branches I did rest
And where I'll rest again

So breathe the air so sweet to me
Cherish it like I did
In my home where the black rose grows
Walk the trails, hear the sounds
Listen close to your beating heart
Feel the drums sound within

Make your home where the black rose grows
