Rosanna Lyrics - Gordon Lightfoot

Rosanna makes my day begin 

With kisses for a king and coffee on a silver tray 

She sees the shape I'm in 

And if she would ever break away 

I'd follow close behind her 

'Cause Rosanna, yes, Rosanna 

Rules my heart 

Rosanna knows the times I keep 

A fire softly glows and the shadows lick the walls 

She knows when I'm asleep 

The dinner's served at eight o'clock on time 

And all is well by nine 

'Cause Rosanna, yes, Rosanna 

Rules my heart 

Rosanna moves across the floor 

Her perfume fills the air as she walks beside my easy chair 

I touch her hand once more 

And I may never sleep again 

I like the bag she put me in 

Rosanna knows the ways of a man 

But not the way I feel, I don't really care what happens now 

It's 'catch me if you can' 

For no matter what occasion should arise 

She likes to sympathize 

'Cause Rosanna, yes, Rosanna 

Rosanna, Rosanna 

Rules my heart
