๐ Lyrics
When you haven't had a record out in two years
And people come up to you on the street
And in luncheonettes and at gas stations
And they say "I can't tell you how much your music has meant to me"
I mean, that's real, I mean they really say that to me
I mean, can you imagine?
The feeling that you get to know that you did somethin' that you dug
And other people dug it so much
That even though they haven't heard from you in two years
They still remember it, they still enjoy it, it brought them something
And, uh, it's only since I really
Left the group that I really realized
What a, almost a fixture the Mamas and the Papas are
I used to say "was", you know, when I, until
I started going out on the road on my own
I used to say "That's part of the past, the Mamas and Papas"
But that's not true
Um, I listen to the records sometimes
And I, whew, it just electrifies me
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one
It's never seen the sun
It only comes up when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
It's growing in the street
Right up through the concrete
But soft and sweet and dreaming
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
With eyes as black as coal
That look down in my soul
And start a fire there and then I lose control
I have to beg your pardon
I'm gonna pick that rose
And watch her as she grows
In my garden
It is a special one
It's never seen the sun
It only comes up when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
I'm gonna pick that rose
And watch her as she grows
In my garden
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
And people come up to you on the street
And in luncheonettes and at gas stations
And they say "I can't tell you how much your music has meant to me"
I mean, that's real, I mean they really say that to me
I mean, can you imagine?
The feeling that you get to know that you did somethin' that you dug
And other people dug it so much
That even though they haven't heard from you in two years
They still remember it, they still enjoy it, it brought them something
And, uh, it's only since I really
Left the group that I really realized
What a, almost a fixture the Mamas and the Papas are
I used to say "was", you know, when I, until
I started going out on the road on my own
I used to say "That's part of the past, the Mamas and Papas"
But that's not true
Um, I listen to the records sometimes
And I, whew, it just electrifies me
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one
It's never seen the sun
It only comes up when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming

It only comes up when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
I'm gonna pick that rose
And watch her as she grows
In my garden
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
