Writers: Apples Grossman
Hear it:
Lyric: Rose Maria, I wait here
all my plans up in the air

Rose Maria, meet me by the willow
The sky will be our sheet
The earth will be our pillow
The river tree will raise its head
and hair will flow and billow
So meet me by the willow

As raindrops fall from clouds
and run into a stream
Our love is like the thread
that mends the tattered seam
Two hands when joined shall find a coin
of silver-wedded dreams
So meet me by the willow

Rose Maria, I wait here
all my plans up in the air

The sun falls from the clouds
An orange glow fills the tree
The leaves are hanging still
in full expectancy
All nature's right for love tonight
if you will but agree
to meet me by the willow

The hour has grown late
I've waited all alone
The coming of dawn's light
has brought my phantom home
I lash a rope onto the tree and nevermore will moan
and wistfully weeps the willow.


Rose Maria, I wait here
all my plans up in the air
