Rosalie

Lyrics: John Perry Barlow
Music: Mike Bolger, Paul Bolger, Mark Hague

One of the songs Barlow wrote with Mr Blotto

Can I be the one that tosses you in sleep?
Can I be the one who's price becomes too steep?
Can I haunt your every moment
And every breath you breathe?
Can I be your one exception, Rosalie?
My Rosalie

Can I be the only thing you still believe?
Can I be the scarlet threads within your weave?
Can I be the grass that dries
Beneath your sweetly fallen leaves?
Can I wander through your garden, Rosalie?
My Rosalie

Can I be the song that's stuck inside your head?
Can I be a hunger never to be fed?
Can I be the final sentence
In the book beneath your bed?
Can you love me when you're dead, Rosalie?
My Rosalie
