Lyrics

Rosalee

(count-in)

Rosalee

Where you been so long?

Rosalee, Rosalee

Where you been so long?

When you smile at me

All the lights come on

Stop!

Rosalee, Rosalee

Come and dance with me again

Rosalee, Rosalee

Come and dance with me again

You're my one true love

You're my oldest friend

It don't matter now

Who was right and who was wrong

It don't matter now

Who was right and who was wrong

Because you're here with me

I'm back where I belong

Rosa, come out here

In the summer night

Can you see out there

Almost out of sight?

Your lovin' calls to me

Like that far distant light

Yeah!

OOOh Ro-o-o-o-o-o-o-sa

Again
