Steely Dan Rose Darling lyrics

Rose darling come to me, Snake Mary's gone to bed
All our steaming sounds of love, cannot disturb her in her night
Or raise her sleeping head, all I ask of you
Is make my wildest dreams come true, no one sees and no one knows

Rose darling come to me, Snake Mary dreams along
I would guess she's in Detroit, with lots of money in the bank
Although I could be wrong, you must know it's right
The spore is on the wind tonight, you won't feel it till it grows

Rose darling
My friend
With only you and what I've found
We'll wear the weary hours down

Rose darling come to me, the clock is close at hand

All my empty words of love can never screen the flash I feel
Or make you understand, oh honey, can't you see?
I know it's real it's got to be, why not chase it where it goes

Rose darling
My friend
With only you and what I've found
We'll wear the weary hours down

Rose darling
My friend
With only you and what I've found
We'll wear the weary hours down
