  • I'm your angel when it rains, dear
    Heaven picks the place
    I'm a child in that way, dear
    Please do it again

    Hey Rosey, I think I know just what the feeling is

    I was hoping you wouldn't see me like this
    I hate to fall before your feet again
    I'm the rocks they weigh down the angels with
    Help me see, it won't always be like this

    Hey Rosey, I think I know just what the feeling is
    Hey Rosey, I think I know just what the feeling is

    You said you got to let me escape myself
    You said I don't know how not to want something else
    If I held your hand again
    Would you be here down on your knees like this?

    Hey Rosey, I think I know just what the feeling is
    Hey Rosey, I think I know just what the feeling is

    I will love you like there's razors in it
    And she'll love you like a radiant flame
    There's never really any safety in it
    Please do it again
    There's never really any safety in it Writer/s: Aaron Dessner, Carin Besser

  • Paul from Avon, CtThis song is my life. I can feel these lyrics in my bones and in my gut. Every chorus cuts through me as I'm whispering "hey Rosie ..." and feeling so much love for Rosanne, that saved me many times over our 27+ year relationship (25+ years married.)
