We've been so close together Each a candle, each a flame All the dangers were outside us And we knew them all by name Now see how the bramble and the rose intertwines Now love grows like the bramble and the rose Often cruel, often kind
Now, I've hurt you and it hurts me Just to see what we can do To ourselves and to each other Without really meaning to Now see how the bramble and the rose intertwines Now love grows like the bramble and the rose 'Round each other they will wind
So put your arms around me Yes, and sing a true love song One that we can sing together That will last the whole night long So see how the bramble and the rose intertwines Love grows like the bramble and the rose 'Round each other we will wind Now love grows like the bramble and the rose

Diamond In My Crown ~ PATTY LOVELESS
As each long day rolls by and falls behind me In the lonely night there's a peacefulness I've found Tho' I'm weary even then When I rise to start again
Ther'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown I have wasted all that life has laid before me I have watched as all the green fields turn to brown But I shall not disavow All these ties that bind me now
Ther'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown Shinning down some day I know Brighter than all their streets of gold When the burdens that I carry I will lay down And the sorrows I have known I'll see them all be overthrown
Ther'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown Through the passing of the years I will grow stronger Just as sure as this old world keeps spinning 'round Then the closer I will be To my sweetest victory
