Lyrics


ROSEMARY

V1 Waitin’ for you to come home,
Whistlin’ through the window
Wonderin’ where did the glass go?
I hope you come back soon

V2 The bricks in my chimney are cold
On the porch the newspaper’s old
The headlines are grey, they don’t have much to say
We hope you come back soon

CH It’s a crumbling town, busted out and broke down
No more fathers and mothers, sisters or brothers
Busted out and broke down, but I’m still around
Waiting for you, .come home soon

V3 Yesterdays and used-to-be’s,
I’m keeping my memories
In the attic upstairs , where nobody cares
Film noir no one ever sees

BR The soundtrack is scratchy, the neighborhood sketchy,
The music is all violins
If I could walk, I would dance my own tune
And I could, too… if you’d come back soon

CH It’s a crumbling town, busted out and broke down
No more fathers and mothers, where are the others?
Busted out and broke down, but I’m still around
Waiting for you, come home soon
I’m waiting for you, I’m waiting for you….
