Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes - Rosa lyrics

Rosa (J. Lyon/B. Bandiera) Out in the street guitars are playing Distant and soft like an old radio Inside the fan sends the curtains to sway The evening's come and, babe, I must go I came to this place lost and alone Found a love I've never felt before Now all that's left is this broken heart A Pinata spilled out on the floor And, hey, Rosa, come closer Ay ay ay I won't see you anymore But, hey, Rosa, it's you I adore Man on the street, he beggin' me to come with I laughed at myself, but I went along Just for one look at the woman he offered Maybe she's something I can use in a song Oh, but he opened up the door to my heart Much to my shame and to my surprise Now, when I look back, I search for a way To cross the border, back into your eyes And, hey, Rosa, come closer Ay ay ay I won't see you anymore But, hey, Rosa, it's you I adore Out on the street the last light is fading While in this house, love dies bit by bit Children gone and the wife's slowly leaving Pull up a chair and at my window I sit I wonder if I'll ever get up the nerve Go back down south and find you again Break away from these sad suburban streets And let my real life begin whooa And, hey, Rosa, come closer Ay ay ay I won't leave you anymore And, hey, Rosa, it's you I adore And, hey, Rosa, come closer Ay ay ay I won't leave you anymore And, hey, Rosa, it's you I adore It's you I adore Hey, Rosa, you know that sun is going on down Take a walk with me, darling Through this dusty border town Some lonesome dog is barking as we're moving down the street I fold you in my arms, you smell so sweet Oh, come on, Rosa, come on, baby Hey Rosa Doppler Shift Music/Carli-Rob Music ASCAP
