lyrics

Rose of the Night (© 2011 Kate Aronson)

My name is Sally, Virginia was my home
I loved a man so fiercely, but never could I
call him my own
The times were troubled, our lives so far apart
But he held me so tightly under the southern
stars

He called me his only true love
He called me his rose of the night
He called me his darling Sally
He promised to make things right

We spoke of freedom and justice for all men
We‟d steal away for hours; we were equals
only then

He called me his only true love
He called me his rose of the night
He called me his darling Sally
He promised to make things right

Then a child was blossoming from our love
He turned away without speaking as the stars
fell from above

He called me his only true love
He called me his rose of the night
He called me his darling Sally
He promised to make things right

My name is Sally, Virginia was my home
I loved a man so fiercely, but never could I
call him my own
