lyrics

Dropped by on a battle zone, I found love, it don’t wander here
Capsized by this deadened road, all hope has been commandeered
But in the dark comes a gleaming light that soon begins to shed this fear
That all is lost and no good has won, but there shall be no futile tear

So goodnight, Miss Rosa Lee, and good luck getting outta my head
If in the morning you’re still lonely, I’m sure we’re both better off dead
So goodnight, Miss Rosa Lee, I’m sure there ain’t a safer bet
So in the morning you look closely cause this sun was never born to set

You hit me like a sudden breeze in a desert of my own device
Out of reach staying on the run, holding cold but never thinking twice
Like a snake you try to wrap me up by surprise, but I ain’t easily snared
Open arms would’ve done you good; this love lost is left in disrepair

So goodnight, Miss Rosa Lee, and good luck getting outta my head
If in the morning you’re still lonely, I’m sure we’re both better off dead
So goodnight, Miss Rosa Lee, I’m sure there ain’t a safer bet
So in the morning you look closely cause this sun was never born to set

(Oohs)

Goodnight, Miss Rosa Lee, and good luck getting outta my head
If in the morning you’re still lonely, I’m sure we’re both better off dead
So goodnight, Miss Rosa Lee, I’m sure there ain’t a safer bet
So in the morning you look closely cause this sun was never born to set
