(David Mallett)
You may wonder if you know me
You may wonder if I care
Or if I'll leave you sad and lonely
Or if I'll always be right there
Well there's no need for doubt now darlin'
'Cause I have come to know
This love of ours is no common flower
You know this love is like a red, red rose
And you may wonder about this dreamer
If she's all you thought she'd be
And, oh, if anything but someday
Ever comes from lovin' me
But hold me close and tell me darlin'
That you have come to know
This love I bring you is no common thing
You know this love is like a red, red rose
When you're all caught up in sweet surrender
Simple truth is sometimes hard to see
Here between the tough times and the tender
It all comes down to you and me
And you may see my heart of darkness
I may stumble now and again
But underneath this heart of darkness
There's a heart that's lovin' you right till the end
So hold me close, come hold me darlin'
'Cause I want you to know
This love of ours is no common flower
You know this love is like a red, red rose
This love of ours is no common flower
You know this love is like a red, red rose

Emmylou Harris è una cantautrice statunitense nata in Alabama nel 1947. Considerata una delle figure più influenti della musica country degli anni '70 e successivi, ha saputo combinare elementi folk, country e rock in un sound unico. La sua carriera musicale ha preso una svolta importante nel 1971 quando Chris Hillman, membro dei Byrds e dei Flying Burrito Band, l'ha presentata a Gram Parsons, pioniere del country-rock. Harris ha collaborato con Parsons per il suo album di debutto *GP* e per il successivo *Grievous Angel*, considerato uno dei capolavori del genere. Dopo la tragica morte di Parsons nel 1973, Harris ha continuato a insegnare una carriera di successo, pubblicando numerosi album di grande successo, tra cui *Pieces of the Sky* (1975), *Luxury Liner* (1977) e *White Flowers* (1981). Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi si ricordano *Boulder to Birmingham*, *Red Dirt Girl* e *The Maker*. Emmylou Harris è stata insignita di numerosi premi, tra cui 14 Grammy Awards.
