[Chorus] No matter where I roam I will return to my English rose For no bonds can ever tempt me from she [Verse 1] I've sailed the seven seas Flown the whole blue sky But I've returned with haste To where my love does lie [Chorus] No matter where I go I will come back to my English rose For nothing can ever tempt me from she [Verse 2] I've searched the secret mists I've climbed the highest peaks And caught the wild wind home To hear her soft voice speak [Chorus] No matter where I roam I will return to my English rose For no bonds can ever keep me from she [Verse 3] I've been to ancient worlds I've scoured the whole universe And caught the first train home To be at her side [Chorus] No matter where I roam I will return to my English rose For no bonds can ever keep me from she
