ben david (folk) – rosealene lyrics
an ocean after winter melted, gathered at my toes
reading journal entries of your cheekbones like someone in prose
and i was sad ’cause i saw love can die, just like my dog
and i don’t want to let that happen, no i don’t want to be forgotten
and i’ll sing, “rosealine,”
she will linger in my mind
you were seventeen and somewhere, love was in our eyes
i’ll sing, “rosealine,”
she will linger in my mind
it was so bittersweet, finding love to watch it die
i still remember, by the lakeshore with the half+moon in the clouds
something silver in the twilight, something sweet between her mouth
but she asked if i was kidding, her voice, quaking in the bluffs
but ever since that night, i know what people mean by “love”
and i’ll sing, “rosealine,”
she will linger in my mind
you were seventeen and somewhere, love was in our eyes
i’ll sing, “rosealine,”
she will linger in my mind, oh
it was so bittersweet, finding love to watch it die
and she said, “i know you, you’re not the boy who’s bottled up and grey”
i want to hold her, safe in my arms when our roads just go away
so maybe someday, somehow, when i’m a stonger man
i’ll put flowers by her bedside and she will hold my hand
mm, mm, mm
and i’ll sing, “rosealine,”
she will linger in my mind, oh, mm
you were seventeen and somewhere, love was in our eyes
i’ll sing, “rosealine,”
she will linger in my mind, oh
it was so bittersweet, finding love to watch it die
[humming]
so as the ripples fade to nothingness, i’m asking what to feel
’cause bitterness has gotten boring and being lonesome is too real
and i’m left with fading memories of that gravel road we walked
and although this forest’s empty, i’ve where i’ve been and that’s enough
ah, oh, mm
ah, oh mm
and i’ll sing, “rosealine, you will linger in my mind
we were seventeen and somewhere, love was in our eyes”
and i’ll sing, “rosealine, you will linger in my mind, mm
it was so bittersweet, finding love to watch it die”
[humming]
