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