The Pearlfishers - All-round Rosie

Well, I'm standing in line
For a word or sign from you, babe
I've been waiting all day
I don't think it's going to come
And each new day your voice rings in my head
And I look for you in every face I see
Well I don't know what it is
That makes me act the way I do
I fill with dread, lose my thread
My nerve goes too
We just skip the things we need to say
And we don't make time
To say exactly what's in mind

All-round Rosie
When you gonna be my girl
Will you wait for me knocking
On your front door
Or leave me waiting still
All-round Rosie
When we gonna make a start
Will you walk through the valley
Of 100 sins
Or leave me with a haunted heart

Well she walks down the stairs
So self-aware and so amused
Your in the room but your mind
Is somewhere else
And when you call she's always on the line
But you pay no mind
And you just fool yourself

Is it natural to be so downhearted
About something so unreal?
You skin is taut, your hands are knots
And your feet ain't fit to feel
Maybe you should find a place to hide
'Cause something's gone, so far wrong
So far wrong so deep inside
