The Passion Flower 1921

Once a human rose was born;
but she grew to be a thorn;
piercing hearts of loving men;
one will never love again.
He who died won't feel the loss;
she must live and bear the cross.
Fortune holds a tearful hour;
for him who'd love the Passion Flow'r.

Passion Flow'r the fates have spoken,
you alone must pay the cost;
Passion Flow'r your heart is broken,
aching for the one you loved and lost,
but Angel hands are ever mending
broken hearts within their pow'r
Heaven holds a happy ending
for a lonely Passion Flow'r.
