Bill's Song
Oh rosie come back to me, oh rosie don't goI'm stuck in this factory and so far from home
Oh rosie be true to me, don't leave me aloneYou promised you'd wait for me no matter how long
I travelled so far to search for this placeAnd get me a job and find some way to get back in the raceOh rosie don't go
No more than a year ago, I was out in the coldI outlived my usefulness by getting too oldI tried all the friends I knew, I floated in spaceLost count of so many doors that slammed in my face
And you said to me bill, go reach for the sky'Cos don't you know anything can happen if you only tryOh rosie don't cry
And now it's all gone our hopes and our fearsAnd rosie I'm staring at your letter wet with my tearsOh rosie don't go
Oh rosie come back to me oh rosie don't goI'm stuck in this factory and so far from home
