Roseisle Songtext
von The Zebecks

So young now but so young then
I′d never run so fast again
Take my shoes off for the feel
I'd walk the green into my heels
Sometimes looking into the sun
I see the end has just begun
Starts so soft but ends so slow
Every time I′m the last to know

Memories fade fast
Time's past

But I, well I know
This won't last forever
Wish this could last forever
No longer alone
We′ll sing


Are ye dancing?
Cause I′m asking
We're not waiting
You′re not faking it
The walls they touched across the hall
Sweetest sight to my eyes befall
A shadowy reflected sun
That belted out, so loud it sung
I'm taking too many risks tonight

Then I′m off to Roseisle
I'll fly with confidential files
I′ll die so meaninglessly
If you're at the funeral
I'll feel lucky

I′m off to Roseisle
I′ll fly with confidential files
I'll die so meaninglessly
If you′re at the funeral
I'll feel lucky


In that home we built
After dresses and kilts
Blood, sweat, and tears
Between our passing years
I dreamed each night of this
Dying suns eclipsed
And we′re brought to view
Nieces and nephews
Until showing our own
Mothers, fathers, now long gone
Will be inside beating hearts
Restless for what must now start
Endless unconditional
Feeling, touching, void and null
The stress of our unknowing youth
Learning each unwanted truth

So young now but so young then
I'd never run so fast again
Take my shoes off for the feel
I′d walk the green into my heels
Sometimes looking into the sun
I see the end has just begun
Starts so soft but ends so slow
Every time I'm the last to know (Every time I go)

So young now but so young then
I'd never run so fast again (To Roseisle)
Take my shoes off for the feel (I′ll fly)
I′d walk the green into my heels (With confidential files)
Sometimes looking into the sun (I'll die)
I see the end has just begun (So meaninglessly)
If you′re at the funeral
I'll be the last to know
