Everlasting Rose from Rock by Emit Bloch

Everlasting rose
blooms in the hearts
of all who know
All love is learning
All love is growing

And measuring time
is for people who find
that they don't have much time to play
So they save a billet d' hotel from a trip
that they took to Paris
in 1966 when they were kids

Everlasting rose
You're still blooming
You're still growing
On and on
Everlasting rose
You're blooming
On and on
Go grow and grow

And it makes me feel better to know
that in some absurd way
this all fits together
How it wastes away and seems to dissolve
How it grows from a clipping

Everlasting rose
You're still blooming
You're still growing
On and on
Everlasting rose
You're blooming
On and on
