Walter Becker
Rose Darling
[Verse 1]
Rose darling, come to me
Snake Mary's gone to bed
All our steaming sounds of love
Cannot disturb her in her night
Or raise her sleeping head
All I ask of you
Is make my wildest dreams come true
No one sees and no one knows
[Verse 2]
Rose darling, come to me
Snake Mary dreams along
I would guess she's in Detroit
With lots of money in the bank
Although I could be wrong
You must know it's right
The spore is on the wind tonight
You won't feel it 'til it grows
[Chorus]
Rose darling (Rose darling), my friend
With only you and what I've found
We'll wear the weary hours down
[Verse 3]
Rose darling, come to me
The clock is close at hand
All my empty words of love
Can never screen the flash I feel
Or make you understand
Oh honey, can't you see?
I know it's real, it's got to be
Why not chase it where it goes?
[Chorus]
Rose darling (Rose darling), my friend
With only you and what I've found
We'll wear the weary hours down
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Rose darling (Rose darling), my friend
With only you and what I've found
We'll wear the weary hours down
