My Filipino Rose (我的菲律宾玫瑰) - Ernest Tubb[00:00:00]
The postman dropped the letter in my door[00:00:12]
The address wasn't plain but I could see[00:00:18]
It had travelled far across the Great Pacific[00:00:23]
From my Filipino Rose across the sea [00:00:29]
The writing of her trembling hand was blurred[00:00:35]
The paper was sadly stained with tears[00:00:40]
It read to tell me you have want another[00:00:46]
After I have longed and waited all these years [00:00:52]
But I'm still praying that the trade wind[00:00:57]
Sends you sailing across the blue[00:01:03]
In my harbor I dream you'll anchor[00:01:09]
Where your lonely Filipino waits for you [00:01:15]
I have promised her that I'd return someday[00:01:33]
I told her she have won my heart and hand[00:01:38]
I told her a lie cause I was lonely[00:01:44]
Far from home a stranger in that foreign land [00:01:50]
She wrote I watched the driftwood float on by[00:01:56]
I watched the sea alone in it's weary way[00:02:02]
I have watched the silver sails out on the ocean[00:02:07]
Hoping that you'd might return to me someday [00:02:13]
The chains of love may never set you free[00:02:19]
But through the years these mem'ries fondly grow[00:02:25]
This broken heart will always wait for you dear[00:02:31]
It was signed your lonely Filipino Rose [00:02:36]
But I'm still praying that the trade wind[00:02:41]
Sends you sailing across the blue[00:02:48]
In my harbor I dream you'll anchor[00:02:53]
Where your lonely Filipino waits for you[00:02:59]
