Chorus: Ivory Rose, I see your eyes in the petals of my bed

They teach me more than all the highs that dance around my head

Ivory Rose, oh Ivory Rose, you fit me like a glove

Ivory Rose, you fill my garnet heart with love



You listened to my silver songs through all the diamond snows

And as the emerald leaves returned, I felt the golden glows

Of early love begin to fill my heart with treasures no one knows

You gave the spring to me with an ancient ivory rose



Chorus



The love I found in your sapphire eyes is nestled into my soul

In the kisses of your ruby mouth my hollow heart grew whole

And came to know the touch that sows desire, a flower of fire that grows

And burns my pride to cinders, how I love you, Ivory Rose



Chorus



Ivory Rose, Ivory Rose....
