Rosemary and Thieves

Her green eyes turned blue

From protests at the station

I wish she’d come back down

South where I’d find her at the market place

Where she could play it cool

While I’m just stayin’ the fool

I might pretend

We’d ever be friends again

Talkin’ so logical

But I’ll never see you as a viable

Option to call

When I’m just stuck in a

When I’m just stuck in a fall

Chorus

She used to keep

Such a beautiful garden

But now she just waters the weeds

Rosemary and thieves

Her favorite day

Dream is leavin’ this town

Somehow we just keep

Waitin’ around for the sky to fall down

Look for shooting stars

From the hood of my car

They sat in the balcony

The members of the fancy

Everyone’s askin’

How’d they end up

In a place like this

Wearin’ those clothes

We act like nobody

We act like nobody knows

Chorus

She used to keep

Such a beautiful garden

But now she just waters the weeds

Rosemary and thieves

Seems like everytime

I open up my mouth

Words like arrows

Start flyin’ out

Aimed at my friends

And now I have less of them

Bridge

The audience will stay

A little longer than before

You’re parting song will play

While you’re knockin on the door

But you don’t know

What I’m cryin’ for

But you’re knockin on

And they’re opening the….. door
