Rosalinda - Billy Joel

Oh… Rosalinda

Why do you cry?

Oh… Rosalinda

Could this be why?

Now that there’s nothing left to do

Now that the children have all grown

Now all you have is just a cat and a silent telephone

Oh… Rosalinda

Why do you weep?

Oh… Rosalinda

Alone you sleep

But the neighbors turn away

What will it take for them to learn

That all you want to do is love and

To be loved in return?

Oh… Rosalinda

We’ve gone away

Oh… Rosalinda

Still you stay

Being what you’ve always been

And doing what you’ve always done

How can we give you back the time

You gave to us when you were young?

Oh… Rosalinda

Turn out the light

Oh… Rosalinda

Rosalinda.

Say goodnight

Now that the children have all grown

Now that we’ve all gone away

Now that you’re sitting at your home

Without a word to say
