[00:04.360] Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart
[00:09.650] What is your future, now we have to part
[00:14.440] Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
[00:18.880] Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay
[00:24.760] Make way, oh, make way for my Eastern Rose
[00:29.440] Men crowd in dozens everywhere she goes
[00:34.100] In her rickshaw on the street or in a cabaret
[00:38.500] "Please make way for Rose" you can hear them say
[00:43.500] All my life I shall remember
[00:48.380] Oriental music and you in my arms
[00:52.900] Perfumed flowers in your tresses
[00:57.590] Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms
[01:03.259] Rose, Rose I love you with your almond eyes
[01:07.990] Fragrant and slender 'neath tropical skies
[01:12.620] I must cross the seas again and never see you more
[01:17.170] 'way back to my home on a distant shore
[01:22.560] (All my life I shall remember)
[01:27.140] (Oriental music and you in my arms)
[01:31.250] (Perfumed flowers in your tresses)
[01:36.250] (Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms)
[01:41.170] Rose, Rose I leave you, my ship is in the bay
[01:47.100] Kiss me farewell now, there's nothin' to say
[01:51.240] East is East and West is West, our worlds are far apart
[01:52.939] I must leave you now but I leave my heart
[02:00.900] Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart
[02:05.069] What is your future, now we have to part
[02:09.580] Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
[02:14.290] Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay
