    Who else is here in 2021 because this makes me feel a certain type of way. A way I didn't even know I could feel. If you just stumbled upon this as I did, I want to remind you that you're powerful and I wish you love, success and true inner happiness. You deserve it.

    They were strolling in the gloaming
    Where the roses were in bloom
    A soldier and his sweetheart brave and true
    And their hearts were filled with sorrow
    For their thoughts were of tomorrow
    As she pinned a rose upon his coat of blue
    Do not ask me love to linger
    When you know not what to say
    For duty calls your sweetheart's name again
    And your heart need not be sighing
    If I be among the dying
    I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
    When the roses bloom again
    Beside the river
    And the mockingbird has sung his sweet refrain
    In the days of auld lang syne
    I'll be with you sweetheart mine
    I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
    Mid the rattle of the battle
    Came a whisper soft and low
    A soldier who had fallen in the fray
    I am dying, I am dying
    And I know I'll have to go
    But I want to tell you
    Before I pass away
    There's a far and distant river
    Where the roses are in bloom
    A sweetheart who is waiting there for me
    And it's there I pray you take me
    I've been faithful, don't forsake me
    I'll be with her when the roses bloom again

      They weren't Guthrie's lyrics....but he took credit for this civil war song. Pretty bad news.

    Here's original lyrics from mudcat cafe. ( Most likely written about the Spanish American War which had just ended; long time after Civil War.)
    I'LL BE WITH YOU WHEN THE ROSES BLOOM AGAIN
    (Will D. Cobb & Gus Edwards, 1901)
    They are roaming in the gloaming where the roses are in bloom,
    Just a soldier and his sweetheart staunch and true,
    But her heart is filled with sorrow, and her thoughts are of the morrow,
    As she pins a rose upon his coat of blue.
    "Do not ask me, love, to linger, for you know not what to say.
    When my duty calls, my sweetheart's voice is vain,
    But your heart need not be sighing; if I'm not among the dying,
    I'll be with you when the roses bloom again.
    CHO: "When the roses bloom again beside the river,
    And the robin redbreast sings his sweet refrain,
    As in days of Auld Lang Syne, I'll be with you, sweetheart mine.
    I'll be with you when the roses bloom again."
    Mid the rattle of a battle comes a whisper soft and low,
    For a soldier boy has fallen in the fray:
    "I am dying, Captain, dying, and I know that I must go,
    But I want your promise ere I pass away.
    "There's a far and distant river where the roses bloom so fair.
    There's a maiden who is waiting all in vain.
    It is there I'll have you take me. I've been faithful. Don't forsake me.
    I must be there when the roses bloom again. CHO.

      This actually isnt a Guthrie song. Its a much older song first credited to... Cobb and Edwards I think. A copy was among Guthrie's papers and that's how this version came to be :)

    When you put your heart and soul into something and it never returns any of your efforts, and you’re completely content with it, and feel like maybe just maybe, with just it’s presence then you can handle the day, the nights wouldn’t be so long. And the tears wouldn’t so openly flow. Though I can see now that’s a lie. The day cripples me, and the night is never ending, and the tears are still falling down my face. I thought maybe it would understand, it would sympathize if anything, stick around out of pity ? Maybe even responsibility, for leading me on and pretending to value me. Though In the end, here I am , 5 O clock in the morning, stuck in the night waiting for a call, a text message something ,a response to my cries. My eyes spewing tears. I’ll guess I’ll just have to adjust.

      +islamofeminist Yes, Billy Bragg was in charge of the project. However, he did not sing lead vocal on all tracks. Jeff Tweedy also sang some tracks particularly on Vol 2 and 3. It is clearly Tweedy's voice on When the Roses Bloom again, not Bragg. There voices are very different.
      Take a look at the studio video where Tweedy is singing lead and Bragg is accompanying on guitar.
      Jeff Tweedy, Billy Bragg & Wilco, Corey Harris - When the Roses Bloom Again
      Incidentally, Woody Guthrie did not write When the Roses Bloom Again, although he did sing it. It was written by Will D. Cobb / Gus Edwards, 1901.
