My Filipino Rose - Hank Snow[00:00:00]

Written by：Marty Robbins[00:00:01]

The postman dropped a letter in my door[00:00:05]

The address wasn't plain but I could see[00:00:10]

It had traveled far across the great pacific[00:00:16]

From my filipino rose across the sea[00:00:21]

The writing from her tremblin' hand was blurred[00:00:26]

The paper it was badly stained with tears[00:00:31]

It read they tell me you have wed another[00:00:36]

After I have longed and waited all these years[00:00:41]

But I'm still prayin'[00:00:46]

That the trade winds[00:00:49]

Send you sailin'[00:00:51]

Across the blue[00:00:54]

In my harbor[00:00:57]

I've dreamed you'll anchor[00:00:59]

Where your lonely filipino waits for you[00:01:02]

I promised her that I'd return some day[00:01:12]

I told her she'd won my heart and hand[00:01:18]

I told her a lie 'cause I was lonely[00:01:23]

Far from home a stranger in that foreign land[00:01:28]

She wrote I've watched the driftwood float on by[00:01:33]

I've watched the sea roll on it's weary way[00:01:38]

I've watched the silver sails out on the ocean[00:01:43]

Hopin' you might return to me someday[00:01:48]

The chains of love may never set you free[00:01:53]

But thru the years as mem'ries fonder grow[00:01:59]

This broken heart will always wait for you dear[00:02:04]

It was signed your lonely filipino rose[00:02:08]

But I'm still prayin'[00:02:13]

That the trade winds[00:02:16]

Send you sailin'[00:02:18]

Across the blue[00:02:21]

In my harbor[00:02:24]

I've dreamed you'll anchor[00:02:26]

Where your lonely filipino waits for you[00:02:29]
