San Antonio Rose - Lyrics - Faron Young

Faron Young was an American country music singer and songwriter from the early 1950s into the mid-1980s and one of its most successful and colorful stars. Hits including "If You Ain't Lovin' " and "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young" marked him as a honky-tonk singer in sound and personal style; and his chart-topping singles "Hello Walls" and "It's Four in the Morning" showed his versatility as a vocalist. Known as the Hillbilly Heartthrob, and following a movie role, the Young Sheriff, Young's singles reliably charted for more than 30 years. He committed suicide in 1996. Young is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Deep within my heart lies a melody A song of old San Antone Where in dreams I lived with a memory Beneath the stars all alone. It was there I found beside the Alamo Enchantment strange as the blue up above A moonlit pass that only she would know Still hears my broken song of love. Moon and all your splendor knows only my heart Call back my Rose Rose of San Antone Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling apart Speak once again of my love my own. Broken song, empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone For that moonlit pass beside the Alamo And Rose my Rose of San Antone. Broken song, empty words I know Still live in my heart all alone For that moonlit pass beside the Alamo And Rose my Rose of San Antone...
