Rosina

(Words & Music by Christopher Kent)

You were such a strange and lonely one
Carrying the ashes of a dream
Beautiful as moon in summertime
Rising slowly through the sky like steam
I wanted to love you and I tried
But something was hurting deep inside

Rosina my friend, you always were a mystery
Beautiful as a woman could be
But in your eyes I could see where it all would end
It was never meant to be, Rosina my friend

Through the night we walked the city streets
Full of dreams of how the world should be
Drawn together by hope and loneliness
Held apart by things I could not see
Trying to find the words to say
Watching the night turn into day

Rosina my friend, you always were a mystery
Beautiful as a woman could be
But in your eyes I could see where it all would end
It was never meant to be, Rosina my friend

Love is such a strange affair
Sometimes even when you care
You cannot find a way

Rosina my friend, you always were a mystery
Beautiful as a woman could be
But in your eyes I could see where it all would end
It was never meant to be, Rosina my friend
