"Rosie's Lullaby" lyrics

Rosie's Lullaby

She walked by the ocean
And waited for a star
To carry her away
Feeling so small
At the bottom of the world
Looking up to God

She tries to take deep breaths
To smell the salty sea
As it moves over her feet
The water pulls so strong
And no-one is around
And the moon is looking down

Saying, Rosie, come with me
Close your eyes and dream

The big ships are rolling
And lighting up the night
And she calls out
But they just pass her by
The waves are crashing
But not making a sound
Just mouthing along

Saying, Rosie, come with me
Close your eyes and dream
Close your eyes and dream
Close your eyes and dream
