Irish Rose Lyrics - David Gray

a beauty so bold and free 

living ever so quietly 

in this emerald paradise 

i have heard from many a lad 

that the 'Irish Rose' is also known 

as the goddess of Irish descent 

who walks with a spring in her step 

and is filled with song and dance 

she is indeed a symbol of strength 

and perseverance and is fiercely proud 

of her heritage but there is 

something that makes this regal 

lady quite unique and that is 

she is a rose without thorns 

who touches all who are in 

her presence with a bewitching 

sense of awe and wonder 

you become mesmerized 

by her grace and elegance 

are soon convinced that you could 

entrust your soul to the mother of Ireland 

her pale white skin and sea green eyes 

add to the drama and the mystery 

her long slender fingers dance 

like a ballerina doing a pirouette 

as she strokes the strings of her harp 

like a maestro perfecting his art 

the mother of Ireland 

her beauty is so captivating 

it leaves you weak in the knees 

but inspires you nonetheless 

to reach higher than you ever 

dared to dream
