Aslyn - Rosemary lyrics

rate me

I don't hear nothing but the sound of me breathing

Maybe just a night-tap, cricket or the slide of a friendly wind

And I don't feel nothing but the sand under my feet

I'm leaving the straight-press for awhile

I'm leaving the strain and the city lights

Rosemary taught me the way

To take it off and lay it down

And leave all the fighters on the edge of town

With their ringing cells and their slamming doors

Just me and my sandals walking moons from more

And life will rock you but you let it roll

Cause I think all this thinking's rushing me old

And here, the best I can do is dream of momma's casserole

I grew up in a small town, soon as I could, I ran out

Feeling might tight, top down and this dreaming needed some room

But somewhere on the city clock, a dreaming girl forgot

That sometimes, the pace of a rocking chair

Is good to slow down, reminisce the air

Rosemary taught me the way

To take it off and lay it down

Leave all the fighters on the edge of town

With their ringing cells and their slamming doors

Just me and my sandals walking moons from more

And life will rock you but you let it roll

Cause I think all this thinking's rushing me old

And here, the best I can do is dream of momma's casserole

Ain't nobody stepping me over

Ain't nobody around, these days

The height that's lifting me up

Is mostly bringing me down

I don't wish for a skyline

If it's barely feeling like home

Just a speck in this bowl

Of people to throw the very same stone

Rosemary taught me the way

La la la, la, la la la la

La la la, la

Rosemary taught me the way

To take it off and lay it down

And leave all the fighters on the edge of town

With their ringing cells and their slamming doors

Just me and my sandals walking moons from more

And life will rock you but you let it roll

Cause I think all this thinking's rushing me old

And here, the best I can do is dream of momma's casserole

Rosemary taught me the way
