Rosi
Cornamusa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Walkin' up and down
in the pouring rain alone
And I long to be with Rosi
Off the hook her phone
and I'm shiv'ring to the bone
Wond'ring why I'm suddenly

Useless like an exhaust on a glider
Unessential like feathers in her way

Rosi, walkin' in the rain
What a silly game,
open up your window
Rosi, I begin to freeze
Beggin' on my knees -
please let me in

Ah jea I know it's true -
I did too much boog-a-loo
Now and then I just can't help it
But I'll change my ways
and I promise here today
I will always stand by you

‘Cause, if love would be sand,
I'd be a desert -
Rosalie, don't you doubt it anymore

Rosi, walkin' in the rain
What a silly game,
open up your window
Rosi, I begin to freeze




Beggin' on my knees -
please let me in.
