Rose Ann of Charing Cross
This is a story of London Town
love is the principal theme
All of the story revolves around
A girl, myself and my dream:
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
I keep your mem'ry ever bright
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
Dressed in your uniform of white
There by my lonely bed
a lovely angel stopped and said
"That's only thunder over head"
And that's how we met
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
The rose you gave me never died
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
It knows one day you'll be my bride
And it will live till then
Until that happy moment when
I know our paths will cross at
Charing Cross again, Rose Ann.
I was so lonely and filled with pain
She was so gentle and fair
Somehow I know I'd be well again
For love was mine then and there:
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
I keep your mem'ry ever bright
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
Dressed in your uniform of white
There by my lonely bed
a lovely angel stopped and said
"That's only thunder over head"
And that's how we met
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
The rose you gave me never died
Rose Ann of Charing Cross
It knows one day you'll be my bride
And it will live till then
Until that happy moment when
I know our paths will cross at
Charing Cross again, Rose Ann.
