I’m chewing on a sprig of that rosemary Trying to sweeten up the deal for the tooth fairy Cause anywhere you go, without a doubt, What you put in is what you’ll get back out While the face in the mirror fades out just the way It faded in, back in the day Then they shuffle the deck and deal a whole new hand Cause that’s just the way, They’ve got the whole thing planned I just wanna hold hands with Rosemary And spend a lazy afternoon picking blackberries You should go, when the going’s good, If you don’t do it now you’ll wish you could Cause the burn to become fades out just the way It faded in, back in the day, Then they shuffle the deck and deal a whole new hand Cause that just the way, They’ve got the whole thing planned I’ve got a house in the hills with Rosemary Where we huddle with the kids while the wind cries Mary On the dotted lines we sign our names When the time is right you’ve gotta stake your claim Cause the heed to the hustle fades out just the way It faded in, back in the day Then they shuffle the deck and deal a whole new hand Cause that’s just the way, They’ve got the whole thing planned I’m drunk on Rumi’s favorite red with Rosemary My heart’s soaked through with all the love it can carry Filled to the brim, worn down to the bone About to pay a little visit to my forever home When this sweet old world fades out just the way It faded in, back in the day Then they shuffle the deck and deal a whole new hand Cause that just the way, They’ve got the who thing planned

Dip my toes in dry hot sand, sea salt helps me understand Follow all the heartbreaks down, turn my head to turn around Drop down in the dark green sea, sea gulls flutter over me Feel so lost my memories, flowing in the breeze In the summer, in the rain In the beach, on a corner Dripping down the drain On Rosemary lane On rosemary lane Small town wishes burning bright, stars shine in the small town night Dunk my head to wash my sins, swirling round like garbage bins Lost my hat and curse a wav, souls that I could never save Drunk and never over you, what’s a guy to do? In the summer, in the rain In the beach, on a corner Dripping down the drain On Rosemary lane On rosemary lane

What a time it was what a time it was for me I was across the floor I was across the floor from you Do I make you feel uncomfortable? Do I make you shake inside? Do I make you want to spit at me or call the police? Everybody has their questions Only I will know the reasons I’m taking Rosemary today I’m picking up pieces again

Rosemary you're so very Different from that man You act so sweet to all you meet But you've got other plans Now you cut like a razor blade And you wear all the sins that you made And you speak with the devil's breath You're a dance with a romantic death When you came to town you knew you found The fancy in his eyes You spin his dreams he's torn at the seams Desire replaced with lies Now you burned all the fuel in his soul And you kept him under your control And you spoke with the devil's breath You're a dance with a romantic death Rosemary you're so very Different from that man Into the flames from which you came The dust where you began Cause you cut like a razor blade And you wear all the sins that you made And you speak with the devil's breath You're a dance with a romantic death

I’m thankful for the change in the weather It sent a signal to my mind I didn’t know but it let me go And I could leave some of the past behind Part of me wants to forget The trouble and the pain But there were tears of joy as well And those will remain I can begin again The solstice had a meaning This time around I can feel it now Not too long ago I couldn’t wrap my head around Walking down these paths I’ve found Rosemary to remember Poppy to forget So many roads I’ve traveled down And roads I haven’t seen yet I feel a new season coming I’m a moth to a flame Finally walking down a path with meaning again I can begin again The solstice had a meaning This time around I can feel it now Not too long ago I couldn’t wrap my head around Walking down these paths I’ve found

I think you’ve lost to will to change the way you see you I wish you had the sight to see the you that I do 
this love you claim you lost your hold on in the deep dark There’s nothing you can’t find, if you can light your own spark I’ve been down this road before 
and I can lose that crown
 but you, my friend, won’t hurt no more I can’t let you drown standing on your own ground Rosemary, I pray you will remember 
I will not let you go
 so very summer til September
 lost in the afterglow

There's a greenhouse in heaven Where rosemary grows from a seed But the seed cousin Kevin has planted is growing where Mary won't see There's a gambling house in heaven Where Mary is trying her luck On shamrocks and 7s She's doubling down, and doubling up She throws her kids in the back seat and drives Seven hills rolling by Fast as she can, over and again Hold my hand, cause Mary can fly There's a farmhouse in heaven Where watches will forever read Half-past eleven on Sunday And Mary's where she's meant to be She throws her kids in the back seat and drives Seven hills rolling by Fast as she can, over and again Hold my hand, cause Mary can fly Mary can fly, Mary can fly Don't cry now cause Mary Mary can fly Mary can fly, Mary can fly Don't cry now cause Mary Mary can fly Mary can fly, Mary can fly Don't cry now cause Mary Mary can fly Mary can fly, Mary can fly Don't cry now cause Mary Mary can fly She throws her kids in the back seat and drives Seven hills rolling by Fast as she can, over and again Hold my hand, cause Mary can fly

You’d know her if you saw her She’s as pretty as the dawn the way she glows a mystery to most in her cottage In the valley down below She’s always in between her dreams and life The way it seems, but all she knows Is lifes too short and hard alone for her Without a garden she can grow Her name is Mary But we all call her rose She leaves flowers Everywhere she goes Lillies and zinnia, wild and overgrown She’s our Rosemary lovely little rose There was this boy many years ago And she fell into love so deep but his mind went a wandering took her heart but left our Mary there to weep Theres a reason that the seasons and the flowers Are the company she keeps And when the sun sinks down behind the valley walls thats why alone's how Mary sleeps Her name is Mary But we all call her rose She leaves flowers Everywhere she goes Lillies and zinnia, wild and overgrown She’s our Rosemary lovely little rose
