I Never Met a Rose

Lyrics

[THE PILOT] Oh, I have met a daisy But where we met is hazy And I have walked the streets With marguerites And clinging vines beside me Oh, I've met a lot of those But I never met a rose There's often been a heather An armful all together And I have even met A violet Who almost satisfied me Yes, I've met every kind that grows But I nevеr met a rose Among the dahlias I oftеn sally I left a lily in the valley But now and then, I ponder And wonder as I wander Among the fields and shrub Perhaps the trouble is—who knows? That I never met a rose Never, never met a rose While roaming through the clover Perhaps I passed her over When all is said and done Am I the one to blame—who knows? That I never met a rose Never, never met a rose?
