Rosanna on the Rooftop

Rosanna

You showed up in torn black jeans

Danced barefoot

On my grandma’s old concrete

You laughed at my careful plans

Knocked the list from my shaking hands

Rosanna

Rosanna

You set the calm on fire

Spin me round that rooftop floor

Kiss me reckless

Higher

Rosanna

Rosanna

You sing off-key

On time

If loving you’s a bad idea

I’ll scream it in the front-line

You drink coffee

Like it’s some outlaw cure

Say

“Love’s messy

That’s the only thing I’m sure”

You carved hearts in the bus-stop sign

Then stole that yellow roadwork sign

[whispered vocals] You said

“Don’t overthink it” [end whisper]

Then you jumped in the deep end first

I was guarding my little heart

You were stealing the whole damn universe

[gang vocals] Ro-san-na

Ro-san-na

Hey! [claps]
