Rosemary

Heaven restores you in life

You're coming with me

Through the aging, the fearing, the strife

It's the smiling on the package

It's the faces in the sand

It's the thought that moves you upwards

Embracing me with two hands

Right will take you places

Yeah, maybe to the beach

When your friends, they do come crying

Tell them now your pleasure's set upon slow release

[Pre-Chorus]

Hey, wait

Great smile

Sensitive to fate, not

Denial

But hey, who's on trial?

[Chorus]

It took a lifespan with no cellmate

The long way back

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

[Verse 2]

We speaks about travel

Yeah, we think about the land

We smart like all peoples

Feeling real tan

I could take you places

Do you need a new man?

Wipe the pollen from the faces

Make revision to a dream while you wait in the van

[Pre-Chorus]

Hey, wait

Great smile

Sensitive to fate, not

Denial

But hey, who's on trial?

[Chorus]

It took a lifespan with no cellmate

By the long way back

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

You're weightless, you are exotic

You need something for which to care

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

[Verse 3]

Leave some shards under the belly

Lay some grease inside my hand

It's a sentimental jury

And the makings of a good plan

You've come to love me lightly

Yeah, you come to hold me tight

Is this motion everlasting

Or do shudders pass in the night?

Rosemary

Oh, heaven restores you in life

[Chorus]

I spent a lifespan with no cellmate

The long way back

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

You're weightless, semi-erotic

You need someone to take you there

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

Why can't we just play the other game?

Why can't we just look the other way?
