The Zombies A Rose for Emily Lyrics

Another great track from The Zombies classic 'Odessey & oracle' album
The summer is here at last, the sky is overcast,
And no one brings a rose for Emi - ly,
She watches her flowers grow, while lovers come and go,
To give each other roses from her tree, but not a rose for Emily!
Emily------, can't you see, there's nothing you can do?
(Emily, can't you see, see-------- how...)
There's loving everywhere, but none------- for you---!
...the sun is shi------------------ning again, but not for you-----!)
Her roses are fading now, she keeps her pride somehow,
That's all she has pro - tecting her from pain,
And, as the years go by, she will grow old and die,
The roses in her garden fade a - way,
Not one left for her grave, not a rose for Emily!
Emily------, can't you see, there's nothing you can do?
(Emily, can't you see, see-------- how...)
There's loving everywhere, but none------- for you---!
...the sun is shi------------------ning again, but not for you------!)
Her roses are fading now, she keeps her pride somehow,
That's all she has pro - tecting her from pain,
And, as the years go by, she will grow old and die,
The roses in her garden fade a - way,
Not one left for her grave, not a rose for Emily!
