Budded Rose (Charlie Poole) 
Little sweetheart, we have parted From each other we must go Many miles may separate us From this world and care and woe 
But I treasure of the promise That you made me in the lane When you said we’d be together When the roses bloom again 
Now this parting gives us sorrow Oh, it almost breaks my heart But say, darling, will you love me When we meet no more to part? 
Down among the budded roses I am nothing but a stem I have parted from my darling Never more to meet again 
Will this parting be forever? Will there be no coming day When our hearts will be united And all troubles pass away? 
Darling, meet me up in heaven That’s my true and earnest prayer If you loved me here on earth, dear I am sure you’ll love me there
