Rosalie - Jess Klein

Rosalie I let you down

Said the words so cold and mean

I’m leaving town

Off to find another dream

I want to believe you’ll smile for me

But this time I’m runnin' clean

From your landscape so harsh

Even neighbors stand apart

Stuck inside their stony views

Of a broke down avenue

Along the fault line where two souls sometimes meet

I didn’t mean to leave you

Oh Rosalie

Someday we will meet

In an old familiar place

Wings upon my feet

Sunlight on your face

I’ll lift you up so high

You won’t ever have to cry

Oh and neither will I

I don’t know what I will find

Surely it won’t have the weight

Of a love so divine

That it burned right into hate

I’ll be speeding down some desert road

And I’ll shake my head at our fate

How you led me to this town

Said they needed me around

Needed me to shake the trees

And whip up a careless breeze

Then you blame me when old leaves fall down

Well, winds blow where they’ll please

Oh Rosalie

Someday we will meet

In an old familiar place

Wings upon my feet

Sunlight on your face

I’ll lift you up so high

You won’t ever have to cry

Oh and neither will I
