Alabaster & Rosemary

Rosemary is an apple seed,

She never wakes up on time,

Drifting along, like a tumbleweed,

Looking for the fruit of a vine.

Alabaster works too long, so he wakes before the light of day,

Drinking coffee,

Reading the paper,

Searching for another way.

Me, I am the reckless one,

Too smart for my own good,

All I ever wanted was to cast a spell but I don't know if I could.

She is a perfect child,

Not a hellish boy like me,

Doesn't think she could change the world,

But I wish I could make her see.

I'm running out of time to say, "I love you",

I haven't found a way to show, all the things I need.

Ah oo,

Ah oo.

As my fingers do the dance,

Waltzing over strings,

Rosemary and Alabaster throw away their rings.

We were fighting in the yard,

With sticks we said were swords,

In a castle, on a hill,

Were spoke the final words.

Years go by and people change,

Marching to the beat of a drum,

Some folks find a better job,

And some find a better drug.

I believe if fate had planned for further down the road,

Maybe I wouldn't need a song to help me carry the load.

I'm running out of time to say, "I love you",

I haven't found a way to show, all the things I need.

Ah oo,

Ah oo.
