The Climbing Rose

Mercury Rev · The Secret Migration [2005]

Lover lift me up, high enough

To see the star of gold

In the heart of the climbing rose



And how she knows, what to hold

And what to leave behind, but close

And how come I don't

How come I don't



Lover let me see where she finds

The strength to rise above the weeds and other plants

And how come I can't

How come I can't



Lover lift me up

Oh come and lift me up



Lover let me go, let me see

Just how it feels, to bloom, all by yourself

Oh I know I can

Oh you know I can



Lover lift me up, high enough

To see the star of gold

In the heart of the climbing rose



Lover lift me up, high enough

To see the star of gold

In the heart of the climbing rose

Lover lift me up



Lover lift me up

(Lover lift me up)

Lover lift me up

(Lover lift me up)

Lover lift me up

(Lover lift me up)
