Lyrics
Rosie

See the same old crowd again
wash my hands and shake my feet
and yes I missed you all
since I last saw you I fell down the rabbit hole
As I wonder what we'd be like
wrapped up so up tight with you
lust will do funny things
I dont want you to go out looking so good
and you look soo good
Rosie
Well I feel your love and I want you to agree, to be
Still take your time but get to me, Rosie
She looked away as I mentioned her name
street lights light up my shame
the world can take you and swallow you whole
but you're a big girl and I think that you already know
you've been bought and sold
Be careful with me
I see all that you see
Troy died in a day for little Rosie
Rosie
Well I feel your love and I want you to agree, to be
Still take your time roll your stone to me, Rosie
Gonna find you now I'll walk the beat
And you'll do me a pirouette in the street
And although we'll fall, we'll find our feet
yeah
Rosie
Oh I wanted you so easily
Illusions past and now I see
An Image is so different to reality
Rosie
Oh, Ro, Rosie
