Rosemary AvenueI should stay out of the attic There are dragons up here Some of them I slayed years ago Some of them I still fear In a weak moment I resolved To sit and reminisce And in a box of old pictures I charged into the mist Chorus: A faded picture of a damsel in distress On the porch of a house painted blue In a long calico dress A picture of me and you On Rosemary Avenue On a thousand hot, starry nights I bested all comers Endless jousts for your affection Marked the passing summers We swore we’d grow old together Come hell or high water But what seems so clear at eighteen Gets cloudy at forty Chorus: A faded picture of a damsel in distress On the porch of a house painted blue In a long calico dress A picture of me and you On Rosemary Avenue We had no dramatic ending I can’t even recall The moment I knew I’d lost you If I ever knew at all Bridge: Some things just slip away Like a feather in the wind You can dwell on yesterday But you can’t go back again Chorus: A faded picture of a damsel in distress On the porch of a house painted blue In a long calico dress A picture of me and you On Rosemary Avenue Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
