Chris Norman - Bill's Song lyrics

Oh Rosie come back to me, oh Rosie don’t go
I’m stuck in this factory
And so far from home

Oh Rosie be true to me, don’t leave me alone
You promised you’d wait for me
No matter how long

I traveled so far to search for this place
And get me a job and find some
Way to get back in the race
Oh Rosie don’t go

No more than a year ago
I was out in the cold
I outlived my usefulness by getting too old
I tried all the friends I knew
I floated in space
Lost count of so many doors
That slammed in my face
And you said to me bill, go reach for the sky
‘Cause don’t you know anything can
Happen if you only try oh Rosie don’t cry

And now it’s all gone our hopes and our fears
And Rosie I’m staring at your
Letter wet with my tears oh Rosie don’t go

Oh Rosie come back to me oh Rosie don’t go
I’m stuck in this factory and
So far from home
