Deep within my heart lies a melody a song of old San Antone
Where in dreams I lived with a memory beneath the stars all alone
Cause it was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above
And that moonlit pass beside the Alamo and rose my Rose of San Antone
Moon and all your splendor knows only my heart
Call back my Rose Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals fallin’ apart
Speak once again of my love my own
Broken song empty words I know still live in my heart all alone
And that moonlit pass beside the Alamo and rose my Rose of San Antone

Well now moon and all your splendor…
Rose my Rose of San Antone rose my Rose of San Antone
