Lyrics

Rosie

[Chorus]

I...smile...when Rosie comes to see me

And I'm sad when Rosie goes away

'Cause, Rosie brings the sunshine

[Verse]

I...smile...'cause Rosie lets me be me

Love grows with Rosie every day

'Cause Rosie brings the sunshine

And I'm in love with Rosie

'Cause Rosie treats me good

Making people smile, that's Rosie's art

I fell in love with Rosie, anybody would

Rosie grows like flowers in my heart

[Chorus]

I...smile...when Rosie comes to see me

And I'm sad when Rosie goes away

'Cause Rosie brings the sunshine
